Work to build Canberra's big battery project is expected to start next year, with the ACT government outlining its plan to deliver one of Australia's largest battery storage systems.
Chief Minister Andrew Barr will announce funding for the start of the Big Canberra Battery project in next week's ACT budget.
The project will be delivered in three parts. The first part will deliver 250 megawatts of grid connected battery storage that will support the electricity network.
