I Squared Capital Launches ANZA Power with 2,000 MW (15 January 2026).
Anza Power has acquired two consented, construction-ready solar farms in New Zealand from Helios Energy Limited: Karioi (110 MWac) in the Ruapehu region and Ongaonga (95 MWac) in Hawke's Bay, totalling 205 MWac. The combined projects are expected to generate approximately 411,400 MWh annually, powering around 58,000 New Zealand homes.
Palisade Investment Partners has acquired, through Intera Renewables, two development-stage renewable energy projects in Australia: Monogorilby (up to 600 MW wind + 400 MWac / 1,600 MWh BESS in Queensland) from LP Renewable Projects, and Winton WRESST (400 MWac / 1,600 MWh grid-forming BESS in Victoria) from Celero Infrastructure. Both projects were acquired partway through development.
Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CI V) has acquired the Gawara Baya hybrid project in North Queensland, Australia from Windlab, comprising a 408 MW onshore wind farm and 104 MW of grid-forming BESS. Financial close secured with an AUD 1.7 billion facility from 10 banks. Construction is now underway with full operation expected in 2030.
BW ESS has acquired the 250 MW / 1,000 MWh Yanco BESS project in Riverina, New South Wales from ACEnergy. The ready-to-build project connects to the Yanco 132 kV substation with CATL as System Integrator and ACLE Services as BoP contractor. Construction commences later in 2026, with commercial operation planned for 2028, underpinned by a long-term capacity swap.
Vestas Development A/S has acquired the St Patricks Plains Wind Farm project in the Central Highlands of Tasmania, Australia from Ark Energy. Vestas is progressing through consent conditions, geotechnical engineering and detailed design ahead of construction. Ark Energy developed the project over approximately eight years through planning and approvals.
Enervest has acquired the 300 MW Northern Border Battery, a large-scale BESS project in development on the NSW–QLD border, connecting to the Dumaresq substation. The project is the first asset retained under Enervest's own-and-operate model and is expected to begin construction in early 2028, supporting grid reliability ahead of the closure of the Eraring coal power station in 2029.
CleanPeak Energy Holdings has signed an agreement to acquire 100% of Sustainable Energy Infrastructure (SEI), one of Australia's largest owners of sub-5 MW distributed solar and battery assets. SEI operates 71 MWac of solar PV across 16 sites and 42 MW of BESS across 11 sites in NSW, Victoria and South Australia. The acquisition accelerates CleanPeak's national renewable energy growth strategy.
Palisade Investment Partners has agreed to acquire a 100% interest in the 240 MWac / 960 MWh Summerfield BESS in South Australia from Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, through its Australian renewable energy platform Intera Renewables.
