1414 Degrees received GPS approval for a 140MW battery energy storage system for the Aurora project near Port Augusta, South Australia. The project, developed for SiliconAurora, aims to support data centers and high-demand industrial applications.

The approvals are valid for 12 months, enabling the company to pursue power purchase agreements. The project will also pilot the SiBox thermal energy storage technology, which utilizes silicon's latent heat capacity for energy storage. This technology targets long-duration energy storage and high-temperature industrial processes, setting it apart from conventional battery systems. 1414 Degrees is negotiating to enable open access to the National Electricity Market.
