What Equis does

Equis Development Pte. Ltd. is a Singapore-headquartered Asia-Pacific infrastructure developer formed in 2019 through the restructuring of an earlier funds management business into an asset development company. The company develops, builds, owns, and operates utility-scale renewable energy (solar, wind, and offshore wind), battery energy storage systems (BESS), bioenergy, and waste processing infrastructure across Australia, Japan, and South Korea, with regional offices in Melbourne, Brisbane, Seoul, and Tokyo. Its Australian business is consolidated under the GreenPoint Energy platform, which manages a 2.5 GW portfolio of 12 BESS and wind assets in the National Energy Market, anchored by the 600 MW Melbourne Renewable Energy Hub — one of the world's largest battery storage projects — and includes the 200 MW/800 MWh Koolunga BESS in South Australia under construction for September 2027 completion.

The company's core technology is the integrated development and operation of grid-scale energy infrastructure that converts intermittent renewable generation into dispatchable capacity through battery storage, capacity trading, and long-term offtake structures. Revenue is generated through long-duration offtake agreements with utilities and government entities, regulated capacity payments under schemes such as the Australian Capacity Investment Scheme and Japan's long-term decarbonization auction, and project financing arrangements including a $400 million debt facility for the Melbourne Renewable Energy Hub and a US$1.25 billion 2020 capital raise. The go-to-market is exclusively B2B enterprise field sales — bilateral offtake negotiations with utilities like Korea Power Exchange and competitive tender submissions to government counterparties such as Victoria's State Electricity Commission and the Australian Federal Government — with no consumer-facing or channel distribution. Customer segments are government energy entities (primary), electricity utilities and grid operators (primary), and industrial energy consumers (secondary).
