Strong top-line growth coupled with margin improvement and operating leverage, resulted in a material improvement to operating performance, with OSW Group significantly strengthening profitability in 2025.
OSW is building a global, end-to-end distributed energy ecosystem
In 2025, significant progress was made across OSW Group’s key business lines towards delivering on its strategic vision:
- OSW (renewable energy distribution business) achieved over 20% market penetration in the Australian residential energy storage segment, and completed its strategic positioning in Europe and North America
- GreenDeal (rebate trading business) strengthened its role as a cash-flow enabler for renewable energy installers with >50% increase in trading activity, over 130% increase in turnover and reaching a 21% market share in Australia
- GreenSketch (AI powered solar infrastructure platform) officially launched its digital platform connecting installers, manufacturers, and end users with over 40,000+ projects created on GreenSketch in 2025. During the year, GreenSketch also expanded into multiple European markets, supporting its transition from a domestic design tool to a scalable, cross-market infrastructure platform for installers and energy partners.
- SunMine (solar RWA tokenisation), was established as a new business line leading an effort to tokenise solar energy, leveraging the entire OSW Group ecosystem to provide investors access to solar energy as a real world asset
- OSW Group’s continued focus on investments into technology and data are proving to be a critical differentiator and long-term growth driver
“2025 marked a pivotal year for OSW Group – achieving significant scale, strengthening profitability, and transitioning into its next phase of growth—defined by global reach, platform-based operations, and technology-led execution across the renewable energy value chain. As we look to 2026, we are well-positioned for continued expansion and supporting the global energy transition.” said Anson Zhang, CEO of OSW Group.
Accelerating Global Expansion
Throughout the year, OSW continued to strengthen its leading position in the Australian renewable energy distribution market, while advancing its international strategy across multiple regions.
- Europe delivered steady and disciplined growth, while continuing expansion into new markets. OSW’s distribution reach will cover The Netherlands, Belgium, Poland, Spain, UK, The Baltics, Romania, Bulgaria and Czech Republic in 2026.
- The United States completed key strategic groundwork, establishing a foundation for long-term expansion
- Mexico officially became OSW’s entry point into Latin America with the establishment of a local office
- Singapore office established in Q4 2025
Together, these initiatives further diversified OSW’s geographic exposure and enhanced the resilience of its global operating footprint.
Capital Backing to Support Long Term Platform Growth
In August 2025, OSW Group secured a strategic investment from SparkEdge Capital, a leading renewable energy focused investment firm. This followed a Series A funding round led by Hillhouse Capital in 2022, reinforcing continued confidence from top-tier institutional investors.
The fresh capital is being deployed to drive OSW’s long-term ambition of building a globally scalable renewable energy platform:
- Support further international expansion
- Accelerate platform and system upgrades
- Strengthen integrated capabilities across distribution, compliance, financing, and digital solutions
Looking ahead, OSW intends to explore additional capital-raising opportunities in 2026 to support its next phase of global expansion and platform development.
Entering the Next Growth Phase
OSW’s performance in 2025 was driven by long-term conviction in the energy transition, a deep understanding of partner needs, and sustained investment in technology and system capabilities.
2026 marks OSW’s 13th year since inception. Symbolically associated with renewal and transition, this milestone aligns with OSW’s entry into its next stage of development.
As global expansion continues, OSW is positioned to build on its platform foundation and pursue the next phase of sustainable growth.
