Quorn Park, a 98 MW solar PV and 20 MW Battery Energy Storage System, has started testing as the first hybrid generator in the NEM. Registered under separate DUIDs, it operates as a mixed aggregate system under AEMO's new Aggregated Dispatch rules.

This arrangement allows the BESS to firm up solar generation and manage excess output effectively. A non-compliance market notice has been issued in connection with ongoing testing, indicating complex operational requirements for these systems.
