Advancing Australia’s clean-energy future with Edify Energy
How do you secure the balance-sheet strength required to scale and speed up green project development?
Edify Energy (Edify) is one of Australia’s leading renewable energy developers, recognised for bringing innovative solar and battery projects to market and helping shape a more flexible, resilient, decarbonised energy system. In early 2025, Edify initiated a process to seek a strategic investment partner to accelerate its growth and continue delivering on its mission to support Australia’s energy transition.
To support this, Edify required market projections it could trust and that reflect credible future system dynamics, as well as analysis that would give investors confidence and withstand rigorous due diligence. Because of our strong existing relationship, and reputation for projections that are known to be reliable, independent and consistent, Edify asked Baringa to support the transaction by providing the modelling and projections for two key assets in the Edify portfolio.
Turning complex market dynamics into bankable projections
We developed detailed projections using our National Electricity Market (NEM) in-house model and leveraged our latest market outlook (Reference Case) in the modelling. We delivered asset-specific market revenue projections and network studies, considering future price evolution, dispatch behaviour, network augmentations, and policy and system level drivers affecting long term market revenues.
We worked closely with Edify and its advisory teams leading the transaction, collaborating end to end throughout the deal. Our team provided iterative analysis, ongoing support and responded to diligence queries to assist in ensuring a smooth transaction.
Driving Australia’s energy transition forward
La Caisse’s acquisition of Edify, supported by additional equity capital, provides the funding needed to deliver two ready‑to‑build integrated solar‑and‑battery hybrid projects totalling 1,180MWp (solar) and 900 MW / 3,600 MWh (BESS). It will also support Edify’s pipeline of more than 12 GW of hybrid and battery storage projects, further strengthening its role in Australia’s clean‑energy transition.
