On March 20th, 2013, Ecoult (Sydney, Australia) announced that it has received a funding from the Australian government to conduct small/mid-sized storage projects.

The funding, which was awarded through the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA), will be used by Ecoult to deliver cost effective storage solutions using Deka UltraBattery technology for homes and businesses in Australia and around the world.

The pilot project will develop a battery storage system prototype for three types of deficit charge/distributed energy applications including: off-grid renewable power solutions; distributed grid connected storage to support voltage and power fluctuations that arise where there is dense concentration of small roof-top solar installations in residential areas; and hybrid generation to improve fuel efficiencies.
