The recently released ISP Draft 2026 quietly shifted the energy transition playbook. Buried in the numbers is a significant signal: transmission requirements have been cut from 10,000 km to 6,000 km. The reason? Batteries are now cheaper than building poles and wires in many cases.

That’s not spin, that’s AEMO saying out loud what the economics have been whispering for a while. Grid-scale and distributed storage aren’t just supporting the transition anymore. They’re replacing the infrastructure that was assumed to be essential.
