On October 29, 2025, Nanrui Jibao, a leading enterprise in China's power grid control technology, signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Pacific Green of Australia in Melbourne. The two parties will jointly build a 250MW/1000MWh grid type energy storage project in Victoria. This cooperation marks the successful entry of China's grid based energy storage technology into the international high-end market, providing innovative solutions for the stability of the global power grid under the high proportion of new energy access.

The Australian power grid is facing severe challenges brought by the penetration rate of new energy exceeding 90%, with increasingly prominent problems such as insufficient grid strength, voltage fluctuations, and lack of inertia. Nanrui Jibao, with a market share of over 95% in China's grid type energy storage market and rich experience in global cumulative installed capacity of over 10GW, has introduced its self-developed NR ISGrid ideal synchronous power grid type solution to the Australian market. This technology has the capability of autonomous network building and the characteristics of multi power supply coordination. It has previously verified its excellent performance in black start, broadband oscillation suppression and other aspects in many complex scenarios, such as Laguocuo, Xizang, Hubei Jingmen, Shandong Zhaoyuan, etc.

This cooperation has important industry demonstration significance. According to research data from Wood Mackenzie, by 2034, the world will need to add 1400GW of grid connected energy storage capacity to meet the demand for new energy grid integration. Assistant General Manager of Nanrui Jibao, Luo Wei, stated that Australia is the most difficult technological highland for grid construction technology in the power grid, and this cooperation fully demonstrates the international competitiveness of China's energy storage technology. Pacific Green CEO Scott Poulter also pointed out that Nanrui Jibao's technological accumulation will significantly enhance the company's competitiveness in the global market.

Currently, the global energy transition is accelerating, and grid based energy storage technology has become the key to ensuring the safe and stable operation of the power grid. In China, the National Energy Administration has explicitly required the penetration rate of grid type energy storage to exceed 30%, and the Northwest New Energy Base is required to have grid construction capabilities as standard. This cooperation between China and Australia not only demonstrates China's leading advantage in key technologies of new power systems, but also provides a replicable commercial path for solving the stability problems of power grids in high proportion new energy regions worldwide. It will promote the development of grid based energy storage from a technical option to a standard configuration for global energy transformation.

With the advancement of this project in Victoria, it is expected to further enhance the new energy consumption capacity of the local power grid, providing strong support for Australia to achieve its energy transition goals, and also setting a new benchmark for China's energy storage technology to enter the global market.
