Macedon IS THE IDEAL LOCATION FOR A BESS Project

Macedon BESS Project will be located around 3.5 km south of Macedon township, and about 60 km north-west of Melbourne, Victoria state’s capital. Covering approximately 5 hectares of land, the battery project will be in a prime location to have excellent access to Victorian’s energy network.

Why at Macedon?

There are many reasons why Macedon has been chosen as the site for our proposed battery project. Some of these include:

  • It has excellent access to Victoria state’s energy infrastructure through the adjacent Gisborne Zone Substation;
  • It is highly accessible through transport connections through both Macedon-Woodend Road and Calder Freeway;
  • It has a natural barrier of large trees and vegetation, which could act as a visual shield for the project, and reduce visual impact for nearby residents;
  • The local council strongly supports renewable energy through different initiatives such as installing hybrid system of solar and battery storage.
