Power Electronics drives Australia’s renewable energy future

31 Oct, 2025
Power Electronics drives Australia’s renewable energy future



Power Electronics, a global leader in energy storage inverter manufacturing and a top supplier of solar inverters for photovoltaic plants across Europe, Oceania, and America, marked a major milestone at All Energy Australia 2025, held in Melbourne on October 29–30.

The multinational showcased its complete portfolio of solutions in solar, energy storage, and electric mobility — technologies designed to reinforce grid stability and accelerate Australia’s transition to an 82 per cent renewable grid by 2030.

The two-day exhibition proved a strategic platform for the company to engage with industry leaders and highlight innovations shaping the energy transition.

Power Electronics’ strong local presence was a central focus at the exhibition, emphasising its deep market experience and technical leadership.

David O’Donoghue, Managing Director of Power Electronics Australia, underscored the company’s commitment to strengthening Australia’s renewable energy future: “Australia is a vital market for the global energy transition, and our long-standing local presence is key.

“With over 30 years of experience here, our dedicated Australian team, backed by our global expertise, is uniquely positioned to deliver the high-tech, reliable solutions needed to secure an 82 per cent renewable grid by 2030.

“Our success at All Energy Australia confirms the market’s demand for high-quality technology and robust local support.”

This focus is reflected in tangible milestones: more than 8 GW of solar and battery energy storage system (BESS) projects deployed, 5 GW commissioned in the last 12 months, and participation in major 500 MW+ BESS initiatives nationwide.

As Australia advances toward its 82 per cent renewable electricity target, maintaining grid stability has become increasingly crucial.

Traditionally, stability has been ensured by large fossil fuel-based synchronous generators. With the rise of solar and BESS projects, new technologies are redefining how the grid operates.

Power Electronics is leading this transformation with its pioneering Grid Forming solutions — an approach enabling renewable assets to behave like traditional power plants.

Unlike conventional inverters that simply follow the grid’s voltage and frequency, Grid Forming inverters create their own stable voltage and frequency, supporting, stabilising, and even restoring the grid after outages.

These solutions are particularly relevant in Australia, where large-scale renewable integration and decentralisation are shaping a more resilient grid.

The company’s GEN 3 Plus solutions now include Active Harmonic Filtering and are Data Centres Ready, offering UPS mode capability for continuous power delivery in critical facilities.

“Australia is not just adopting new solutions; it’s actively shaping the future of the grid,” said Ander García, Grid Connection Manager.

“The level of maturity and the sheer scale of the projects here make it a vital market for us to be in.”

At the core of Power Electronics’ Grid Forming technologies is the PCSM battery inverter, offering power ratings of up to 5.15 MVA and support for four independent BESS configurations.

Combined with its Reverse DC Coupling architecture, these innovations enable seamless solar and battery integration — enhancing flexibility, scalability, and reliability for hybrid energy projects.

Expanding beyond grid technologies, Power Electronics also unveiled its latest electric mobility lineup, including the NB Station, Standalone NB 400 ultra-fast charger, and Megawatt Charging System (MCS) for heavy-duty EV fleets.

These innovations reaffirm the company’s commitment to the decarbonisation of transport and the growth of sustainable mobility solutions across Australia.

To meet escalating market demand, Power Electronics is strengthening its Australian business development team to accelerate the deployment of eMobility infrastructure nationwide.

By leveraging its power electronics expertise and expanding its regional footprint, the company aims to support both large-scale EV adoption and Australia’s broader clean energy transition.
