Insights
Fluence secures significant 300MW/600MWh battery project with comprehensive 20-year service agreement, strengthening Australian market position.
Fluence's selection for AMPYR Australia's 300 MW / 600 MWh Wellington Battery Energy Storage System represents a substantial commercial win that bolsters the company's Australian market presence. This comprehensive contract includes not just the Gridstack鈩� hardware deployment but also a 20-year service and maintenance agreement, creating a valuable long-term revenue stream that provides enhanced visibility into future earnings.
The deal's strategic value extends beyond the hardware, as it incorporates Fluence's complete software ecosystem - including Mosaic bidding software for market optimization and Nispera for asset performance management. This full-suite implementation demonstrates the company's successful transition from purely hardware sales toward higher-margin, recurring software and services revenue.
The project's scale is significant for the Australian National Electricity Market (NEM), where grid-scale batteries are becoming increasingly critical for managing renewable intermittency and network stability. With energization scheduled for 2026, this represents a substantial addition to Fluence's Australian project pipeline, which already includes four operational battery systems, two nearing operation, and several under construction.
What makes this particularly notable is the virtual tolling contract structure that allows AMPYR to nominate charging and discharging times. This arrangement optimizes the battery's revenue potential in Australia's energy market while providing Fluence with stable, contracted returns. The selection validates Fluence's integrated hardware-software approach in a competitive market where differentiation beyond pure storage capacity is increasingly essential.
The project will include the full suite of Fluence鈥檚 innovative storage products, including 鈩�, a 20-year service contract, Mosaic bidding software, and Nispera asset performance management software
SYDNEY, July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fluence Energy, Inc. (鈥淔luence鈥�) (NASDAQ: FLNC), a global market leader delivering intelligent energy storage, services, and asset optimization software, today announced that the company has been selected by AMPYR Australia (AMPYR) for the 300 MW / 600 MWh Wellington Stage 1 Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in Wellington, New South Wales, Australia. AMPYR has contracted Fluence for construction of this project and a 20-year service and maintenance contract. The project will also be powered by Fluence鈥檚 Mosaic bidding software and Nispera asset performance management software.
The Wellington Stage 1 BESS is AMPYR鈥檚 first grid-scale battery energy storage system to reach financial close in Australia. This project is scheduled to be energised in 2026, signaling a significant step towards bolstering Australia's renewable energy capacity and grid stability.
Wellington Stage 1 will use听鈩� grid-scale energy storage product, underpinned by Fluence鈥檚 multi-generational technology platform. The system will be optimized by Mosaic, Fluence鈥檚 intelligent, AI-powered bidding software, designed to enhance the efficiency and profitability of BESS in the National Electricity Market (NEM) and Nispera, Fluence鈥檚 next generation asset performance management software. Mosaic will be used to manage AMPYR鈥檚 virtual tolling contract, which will allow AMPYR听to nominate when the battery should charge or discharge, to maximize performance.
鈥淲e are thrilled to be partnering with AMPYR on the Wellington Stage 1 BESS project, marking another step forward in strengthening Australia鈥檚 transition to a more sustainable energy future,鈥� said Jan Teichmann, SVP & President, APAC. 鈥淲e believe the full suite of Fluence鈥檚 innovative storage products and operational services will allow AMPYR to extract the most value out of the Wellington BESS once operational. Fluence has a strong track record of delivering BESS projects in Australia, and our established team is dedicated to ensuring the Wellington BESS will create a more resilient grid for Australia.鈥�
鈥淭he Wellington Stage 1 grid-scale battery represents a significant contribution to growing Australia's renewable energy capacity and strengthening its grid stability. Our partnership with Fluence will enable the delivery of competitively priced, reliable renewable energy to major Australian electricity users. This project is a crucial first step in our commitment to delivering 6,000 MWh of operational BESS by 2030, directly addressing the growing need for grid-scale batteries and accelerating Australia's transition to a reliable, affordable, and renewable energy future,鈥� said AMPYR Australia CEO Alex Wonhas.
Fluence has a strong track record in Australia, with four battery energy storage systems currently in operation, another two entering operations in the next few months, and several BESS projects under construction.
