Recharge Power and Energy Decarb have already captured an active project pipeline totaling 128MW / 292MWh in Australia. These projects are expected to be delivered through the JV and progressively completed over the next two years, establishing a solid foundation for future expansion into large-scale utility energy infrastructure.

The initial phase of the partnership will focus on commercial and industrial (C&I) customers, including hotels, shopping centers, manufacturing plants, logistics hubs, and sports venues. By providing integrated solar and BESS EPC solutions alongside Energy Service Company (ESCO) offerings, the partnership aims to help businesses reduce electricity costs, enhance energy resilience, and unlock additional revenue opportunities through participation in Australia's electricity market.

"We intend to replicate the proven success we achieved in Taiwan and Japan—gaining swift local traction and then scaling rapidly," said Spencer Feng, Chief Executive Officer of Recharge Power.

Spencer added that the partnership combines the strengths of both companies. Recharge Power brings proprietary Energy Management System (EMS) software and comprehensive system integration capabilities spanning project engineering, construction, and long-term operations and maintenance (O&M). Energy Decarb contributes deep local market knowledge and industry insight, project development expertise, and electricity trading capabilities. Together, the companies are well positioned to capture growing opportunities arising from Australia's accelerating energy transition.

Combined Forces to Capture the World's Third-Largest Storage Market

The establishment of the JV is strategically timed to ride the massive growth momentum of Australia's clean energy shift. According to the Clean Energy Council's 2026 Clean Energy Australia Report, cumulative investment in Australia's renewable energy sector reached AUD 31.4 billion by the end of 2025. Investment in battery energy storage projects alone totaled AUD 4.8 billion in 2025, representing a 67% increase year-over-year and reinforcing Australia's position as the world's third-largest energy storage market.
