Renewable Energy Storage

RayGen combines hi-tech solar with thermal storage for proven, reliable and flexible energy. Our innovations – across solar and storage hardware, operating software, manufacturing and process optimisation – offer a new capability for the fight against climate change.

How We Help

We generate low-cost solar electricity and heat. We store energy – from our solar, other renewable projects, and the grid. We supply electricity on-demand – day and night, summer and winter. We underpin system strength. RayGen’s system is flexibly configured and operated to meet the needs of customers and grid operators.

Utility Scale

RayGen’s Carwarp power plant is the world’s largest next-generation, long duration energy storage (LDES) project, the world’s highest efficiency solar photovoltaic project, and is contracted to one of Australia’s largest utilities, AGL Energy.

Sustainability

For a zero-carbon future, RayGen’s solution comprises low degradation, recyclable, locally and internationally sourced materials that require minimal maintenance, offering projects lifespans of over 30 years. RayGen has been generating solar electricity from a sheep paddock since 2015.

Australian Manufacturing

RayGen is commissioning Australia’s largest renewable energy manufacturing facility: a 170MW per annum solar module production line in Melbourne. The line will employ 30 staff at full production.

RayGen’s approach eliminates polysilicon, leverages high-tech semiconductor supply chains from the satellite industry and can be exported globally.

Applications

RayGen meets the needs of electricity markets, on- and off-grid customers and green fuel projects.

Dispatchable Renewable Energy

Export electricity and hedge against price spikes over long, even seasonal duration

Capacity Agreements

Provide the grid with contracted reserved capacity, e.g. caps of over 10 hours

Frequency Control and Ancillary Services

Respond within seconds to the demands of the grid as a reliable synchronous generator for grid transient stability

System Strength and Inertia

Provide system stability, physical inertia, voltage control and black start support with synchronous machines

Baseload

Meet the 24/7 needs of large industry and mining, on-grid and off-grid

Peak Commitments

Provide peak generation for 4 – 6 hours at times when the demand is high

Agrivoltaics

Tap into opportunities for sheep grazing and carbon farming with reduced exposure to environmental offsets

Green Fuels

Increase uptime, reduce cycling and capture waste heat from hydrogen electrolysis and green fuel synthesis
