Gannawarra Energy Storage System (GESS) is a grid-connected

Kerang
.

The Gannawarra Energy Storage System was partially funded by grants from the

Engineering, procurement and construction was provided by RCR Tomlinson.[2] It helps to ease the demand on a constrained transmission line and balances higher levels of renewable energy on the grid. It first exported electricity to the grid in October 2018.[3]
