How would a battery perform today in Barangaroo?

Quick answer: At Battery IQ, we help Barangaroo residents get their battery design right, and that's about far more than price per kilowatt. It starts with your whole-of-household electrification: understanding your actual electrical load and how you use energy, working out your priorities, then getting the battery sizing and features to match. A cheap battery that's the wrong size or spec won't serve you. Just as important is the retail energy plan behind it: the right battery charges from both your solar and cheap off-peak grid power, which matters all the more somewhere like Barangaroo at 4.6 peak sun hours/day. Get the design and the plan right together and a battery typically pays back in 5-8 years.
