In 2021, Hybrid Systems Australia built and installed a 576kw BESS and control system for Synergy at Coral Bay, WA which fully integrates with Synergy’s existing diesel and wind generation facilities.

The sophisticated control system accommodates the introduction of battery storage and works to turn off all diesel generation when renewable generation and BESS back-up is sufficient, and then seamlessly re-engage it when required. As a result, the entire town can be powered emissions-free when conditions are favourable to wind generation.
