Anza Power Signs Amazon’s First Standalone Battery Storage Tolling Agreement in Asia Pacific

The landmark agreement will support a 50 MW / 200 MWh battery energy storage system in Victoria and marks Anza’s seventh clean energy offtake since launching in January 2026.

Anza Power, the next-generation independent power producer launched by I Squared Capital in January 2026, has signed a tolling agreement with Amazon Australia for the Bairnsdale Battery Energy Storage System in East Gippsland, Victoria. The agreement represents Amazon’s first standalone battery storage tolling agreement in Asia Pacific and a first-of-its-kind arrangement in Australia for a non-energy business. The Bairnsdale system will connect directly to the electricity grid as an independent asset, rather than operating alongside a solar or wind project.

With 50 MW of capacity and 200 MWh of energy storage, the project is designed to store electricity and dispatch it during periods of peak demand. This will help support regional grid reliability, improve energy flexibility, and enable greater integration of renewable generation into Australia’s National Electricity Market.

I Squared established Anza with a USD $300 million commitment to develop reliable and sustainable energy solutions across Australia and New Zealand. The platform was purpose-built to address the dual challenge of accelerating decarbonization while maintaining the reliable, round-the-clock power required by commercial and industrial customers. Its strategy combines renewable generation, battery storage, and flexible power solutions within a single, scaled platform.

The Bairnsdale agreement demonstrates that strategy in action. It builds on Anza’s existing relationship with Amazon, following five solar-plus-battery power purchase agreements announced in April 2026, and follows the platform’s first New Zealand offtake agreement with Fonterra. Anza has now signed seven clean energy offtake agreements since its launch.

Anza also benefits from I Squared’s broader Asia-Pacific energy platform and experience developing, financing, constructing, and operating renewable generation and utility-scale storage assets across the region.
