Australia now ranks among the world’s top three for battery storage, with renewables powering nearly half the nation’s electricity by 2025. But a warning: while home battery investment surges, large-scale solar and wind projects are seeing slashed investment — experts say the next five years are critical to clear roadblocks and keep momentum alive.
