Fortescue’s integration of Instagrid technology, facilitated by APS, has ensured maintenance workflows are more efficient and less disruptive, and the removal of extension leads and generator noise has created a safer and more streamlines work environment.
The project supports Fortescue’s broader decarbonisation strategy, offering a clean and quieter alternative to diesel-powered systems.

Following the success of the first Instagrid units over the past 12 months, Fortescue is now actively rolling them our across additional sites throughout the Pilbara. This project is a clear example of how battery energy storage systems can go beyond simply supplying power, they can transform site operations, deliver measurable cost savings and contribute to a decarbonised future. Following the success of the first Instagrid units over the past 12 months, Fortescue is now actively rolling them out across additional sites throughout the Pilbara. Instagrid units have become part of the standard fit-out across their maintenance fleet, and this continued adoption reflects Fortescue’s position as a global benchmark for responsible and innovative mining practices.
