Vena Energy Signs $200M Long-Term Battery Deal with incommodities at danish royal state visit

Vena Group has signed a long-term battery storage agreement with Danish energy trading company InCommodities for the Bellambi Heights Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in Central West New South Wales, Australia.

The agreement, valued at approximately $200 million, was signed during the Danish Royal State Visit to Australia by Their Majesties The King and Queen of Denmark, which focused on strengthening cooperation and long-term Danish investment in Australia’s renewable energy and grid infrastructure.

Under the Revenue Share Agreement, InCommodities provides revenue certainty for the development of a 204MW BESS project developed by Vena Group.

This long-term commitment will support grid stability as renewable generation continues to scale across New South Wales. Construction of the battery is progressing, with initial energisation expected in late 2026 and full commercial operations by mid-2027.

Once operational, the Bellambi Heights BESS will charge from excess daytime solar generation and discharge electricity during periods of peak demand, supplying enough electricity to power the average consumption of around 280,000 homes for approximately two and a half hours. Located in Central West New South Wales, the project will provide critical firming capacity in a part of the grid with significant existing and planned solar generation.
