Kookaburra Power Technologies (KTECK) is helping developers and asset owners deploy battery energy storage systems with more flexibility and less risk. Energy storage isn’t just about batteries—it’s about integration that works.

Across the BESS projects we’ve been involved with, one thing keeps surfacing in project discussions: most delays and risks don’t come from the batteries—they come from what connects them. At Kookaburra Power Technologies, we’ve developed a set of optioned containerised BESS models to give project teams the clarity and flexibility they need, without compromising on safety or standards.

🟧 Semi-integrated configurations provide a compliant foundation with battery racks, cooling, fire suppression, and earthing—perfect for teams who want control over PCS, EMS, or site-level integration.

🟩 Fully integrated systems come pre-assembled with batteries, BMS, HVAC, fire protection, with PCS, EMS—ready to drop in, connect and commission with minimal on-site work.

What ties them together is our commitment to:
✔ Matching AS/NZS requirements
✔ Prioritising operator safety
✔ Reducing project risk through clearer integration and documentation

Speed matters in energy storage, but durability and compliance can’t be compromised. At Kookaburra, we focus on delivering practical, safe and integration-ready BESS systems, where success comes from getting the details right early, with clear documentation, defined interfaces, and shared accountability.

Brunstock BESS with Australian Standard and South African Standard red wiring

Many manufacturers only offer bundled systems—with the battery, controls and design locked into one package. That’s often too rigid for IPPs, VPPs or developers with preferred equipment, contractors or existing network requirements.

KTECK takes a different approach. As an authorised distributor of Brunstock, we offer a state-of-the-art BESS that integrates seamlessly with your preferred PCS, EMS and delivery partners, giving you full control over the rest of your project.

We also bring strong local capability. While our lithium-iron batteries are produced by a Tier 1 global provider, we maintain full QA oversight from factory to site. Our Australian-based engineering team supports integration, commissioning and ongoing support, reducing risk and keeping projects on track.

Recent and ongoing projects include:

  • 60+ MWh of BESS delivered nationally, supporting renewable integration
  • Multiple MWh systems planned, with continued rollout planned into 2026
  • Backed by a proven Tier 1 supply partner, with over 12 GWh of battery cells produced annually

Our systems are designed to:

  • Unlock revenue through arbitrage, FCAS, and peak demand management
  • Reduce BESS capex through flexible system architecture and vendor choice
  • Integrate seamlessly with your preferred PCS, EMS, and contractors—no lock-in model
  • Meet Australian standards, with QA from factory to site
  • Reduce delivery risk through local engineering and responsive support
