Epic Energy already owns the 39MW Mannum Stage Two and the 7MW Mannum Stage One solar plants.

Epic Energy CEO Clive D’Cruz stated: “We are delighted to work with Recurrent Energy again at the Mannum site. The battery energy storage system rounds out Epic Energy’s investment at the current site, sitting alongside our two adjacent solar farms.  

“The stand-alone battery will create much-needed energy storage to support the supply of excess renewable energy to the grid during peak periods and to enhance stability.” 

Recurrent Energy has chosen e-STORAGE, part of CSI Solar, to supply its SolBank energy storage system for the project.
