Acciona receives approval for the development of 600 MWp solar PV project near Gladstone

The Government of Queensland has granted Acciona Energia approval to develop a 600 MWp solar photovoltaic plant, as the expansion of the 250 MW Aldoga solar project located in the State Development Area of Aldoga city, in the Gladstone region of Queensland.

The AUD550 million (US$404 million) project is planned to be constructed in phases, the first phase to have a 315 MWp capacity, and the second phase to be built in support of the development of a green hydrogen industry.

The project will be connected to the Powerlink’s Larcom Creek Station. It is expected to generate enough energy to supply approximately 222,000 homes annually.
