Atlas Reserve
A four-hour battery reserve that stabilizes a renewable-heavy regional grid during steep evening ramps.
180 MW / 720 MWh
Queensland, Australia
Challenge
Fast renewable growth created steep evening ramps, congestion risk, and a need for response times that conventional peaking assets could not meet.
Solution
Kinetra designed a four-hour battery reserve with layered dispatch logic for frequency response, congestion relief, and peak capacity. Thermal controls protect cell life across the full operating envelope.
Result
Atlas Reserve responds in milliseconds, reduces renewable curtailment, and gives the regional operator a flexible reserve without fuel price exposure.
VERIFIED IMPACT
120 ms dispatch response
Compared with the project baseline and documented in the operating handover.
