Summerfield, expected to start construction in 2025, will be one of South Australia’s largest battery energy storage projects. e-STORAGE, a tier 1 global provider of energy storage solutions, will provide turnkey EPC services, supplying and integrating over 200 SolBank 3.0 battery containers. e-STORAGE will also support the long-term performance and operational management of the projects under a long-term service agreement with CIP. e-STORAGE has a strong and experienced project delivery team in Australia, with several BESS projects already delivered or under construction.
