The Chinese wind turbine manufacturer Envision Energy and the Australian subsidiary of the Italian developer Fera have announced a collaboration agreement to deliver large-scale hybrid renewable energy projects across Australia’s National Electricity Market (NEM). Partners aim to develop up to 1 GW of wind generation capacity alongside 1.5 GWh of battery energy storage. The partnership will commence with a pilot project in Victoria, featuring Envision’s full converter wind turbines, grid-forming battery storage, and advanced High-Power Point Control (HPPC) technology within a grid-connected hybrid plant. This project aims to demonstrate how hybrid systems can improve grid reliability and unlock new value streams.
Australia targets 82% renewable electricity generation by 2030. At the end of 2024, the country had 15.3 GW of installed wind capacity, covering 11% of its power mix.
