Project summary

Goyder Battery is a two-stage battery energy storage project in South Australia’s Mid North, with reported combined capacity of 454 MW / 1,814 MWh. Neoen’s report dated 29 July 2026 describes Stage 1 notices to proceed and the launch of Stage 2, with Tesla as battery storage supplier and UGL as balance-of-plant contractor. It also reports two 15-year capacity-service contracts, each for 75 MW / 8 hours. The report gave August 2026 as the planned start of site works and 2028 as the expected operating start; it does not confirm those milestones were achieved.

Evidence limits and unknowns

The supplied report, dated 29 July 2026, does not establish the project’s current construction or operating status, whether supplier scope remains available, or whether procurement is currently open.
