HiTHIUM displays 8 hour battery storage system in Melbourne

Melbourne, Australia - On October 28, HiTHIUM, a global energy storage technology company, demonstrated its ∞Power 6.9MWh 8-hour long-duration battery storage system at All Energy Australia. This system offers grid compliance, localized service network, and solutions for commercial and residential uses. Long-duration energy storage is crucial for grid flexibility and reliability in Australia.

The federal government supports clean energy projects with the Capacity Investment Scheme, while New South Wales is advancing dedicated LDES tenders. At the event, HiTHIUM displayed its ∞Power 6.9MWh 8-hour-native BESS, highlighting the increased value of longer-duration storage due to higher-priced events accounting for over 70% of scarcity revenue in 2025.

The system's 96% round-trip efficiency, 25-year design life, and compatibility with major suppliers' PCS and EMS products reduce land use by 15% and lower LCOS through optimization. HiTHIUM also presented its Grid Compliance Simulation and Verification Platform, addressing grid connection requirements for Australian projects. The company has established a localized service network across Australia, including spare-parts warehousing, training, operations, and compliant battery recycling.

Strategic agreements with Australian partners further strengthen local workforce, spare-parts infrastructure, and safety capabilities. By 2027, HiTHIUM plans to open a Brisbane service center, expanding its regional network to provide efficient and reliable support to Australian customers. The company's 8-hour LDES technology, grid compliance expertise, and growing local service network demonstrate HiTHIUM's commitment to supporting Australia's evolving energy storage needs with integrated solutions and sustained local assistance.
