About us

GreenPoint Energy is an Australian renewable energy and battery storage platform backed by long-term institutional capital. We are building a 2.5GW portfolio of battery energy storage (BESS) and wind assets connected to the National Electricity Market, with more than AUD 6.1 billion of equity raised and managed across the region.

The Melbourne Renewable Energy Hub, a 600MW/1,600MWh battery delivered with SEC Victoria, reached full commercial operation in December 2025. We are now building the Calala BESS in New South Wales and the Koolunga BESS in South Australia, alongside wind projects at Bell Bay in Tasmania and Jackson North in Queensland.

The team is small and people here own their work rather than a slice of it.
