WIRSOL Energy Pty Ltd (WIRSOL), announces project completion at the Gannawarra Solar Farm. The 60 Megawatt (MW) solar farm is now operating at full capacity, having received approval from the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) for successfully passing all commissioning tests.
Additionally, Wemen Solar Farm, has achieved first generation. At 110 MW DC, Wemen Solar Farm has approximately 319,000 modules installed across an area of close to 700 acres. The facility is located at Hatta-Bronvale Road in Wemen, approximately 110 km south east of Mildura, Victoria.
The Gannawarra Solar Farm is a 60 MW DC single-axis tracking project located west of Kerang in north-west Victoria. It is to be integrated with the Gannawarra Energy Storage System – a 25 MW/50 MWh Tesla Powerpack battery. The project, together with Wemen solar farm, will provide enough energy to power the equivalent of approximately 52,100 Victorian households with clean, sustainable electricity, whilst preventing the emission of approximately 390,000 tonnes of CO2 per year.
Furthermore, Gannawarra Solar Farm’s retrofitted 25 MW/50 MWh Tesla powerpack battery, Gannnawarra Energy Storage System (GESS), has also reached operation.
