Envision Energy, a global leader in advanced renewable energy solutions, has joined forces with FERA Australia, an Australian-based renewable energy developer, to deliver large-scale hybrid renewable energy projects throughout Australia’s National Electricity Market (NEM). The partnership, unveiled at the Australian Energy Wind Conference in Melbourne, marks a groundbreaking initiative in the country. This collaboration sets the stage to develop projects that could generate up to 1 GW of wind power and 1.5 GWh of energy storage capacity. The agreement highlights the confidence in Envision’s integrated platform, which merges high-tech wind turbines, innovative containerized battery systems, grid-forming power conversion systems (PCS), and its proprietary Hybrid Power Plant Controller (HPPC).
“This partnership is a significant step in demonstrating the potential of hybrid wind and storage solutions to reshape Australia’s energy landscape,” said Kane Xu, Senior Vice President and President of the International Product Line at Envision Energy. “We are proud of the confidence FERA Australia has shown in our technical expertise, and we are excited to deliver projects that will set new standards for clean and flexible energy.”
Sebastiano Falesi, Head of FERA Australia and Board Member of the FERA Group, expressed excitement about the collaboration: “This partnership with Envision Energy is a key milestone in our mission to develop large-scale renewable energy projects in Australia. The combination of wind power and energy storage in hybrid plants will serve as a model for future projects.” He added, “The rapid growth of renewable energy initiatives is essential to Australia’s journey toward a zero-carbon future. With Envision’s cutting-edge technology and global expertise, we are confident in our ability to set new benchmarks in performance and dependability.”
The first project will kick off in Victoria, where the pilot plant will feature Envision’s full-converter wind turbines, grid-forming battery storage, and the advanced HPPC technology in a hybrid, grid-connected facility. This project will serve as a demonstration of how hybrid systems can enhance grid stability and create new opportunities while showcasing Envision’s dedication to the Australian market and their shared vision for advancing renewable energy innovation. By combining FERA’s local expertise with Envision’s global success, the two companies are poised to speed up Australia’s transition to a sustainable energy future.
With a substantial investment of ₹500 crore, Envision has firmly positioned India as a strategic hub in its global operations, generating over 3,000 jobs across the country. As a leading wind turbine OEM, Envision holds a dominant 41% market share in India’s wind energy sector. The company has established an impressive 3 GW annual manufacturing capacity—nacelle and hub production based in Pune and blade manufacturing in Trichy.
Envision has already secured over 10 GW of projects from 22 Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and operates across six states with more than 60 active project sites. To date, it has installed over 2 GW and commissioned 1 GW of wind projects in India, with plans underway to localize the assembly of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) components, further deepening its presence and capability in the country.
Beyond its industrial achievements, Envision has been recognized as a “Great Place to Work” by the GPTW Institute and has actively contributed to social development through its CSR initiatives. The company’s efforts span environmental sustainability, education and skill development, and health and sanitation. Notably, Envision has planted 7,700 saplings across six states, including fragile regions like the Sundarbans Mangrove, and supported the restoration of the historic Chennarayana Durga Fort in Karnataka. Additionally, it has promoted e-mobility and sustainability through awareness campaigns that have covered over 8,000 km across five states, reinforcing its commitment to a greener and more sustainable future for India.
