A joint venture (JV) between Solis Renewable Energy, Marathon Electrical, and WK & MA Ferguson is to commence the planning process of the Fulham Solar Farm.
The Fulham project is a proposed solar farm of 80 megawatts (enough to power around 25,000 homes) with battery storage of up to 80 megawatt-hours to be located on 400 acres of farmland adjacent to the northwest corner of the Hopkins Road and McLarens Road intersection, Fulham. The solar farm is planned to co-exist with existing grazing activities on the site.
Detailed site assessments and designs are currently underway, with a formal period of community consultation to be completed in the coming months, prior to submission of a planning application to the Department of Environment, Land, Water, and Planning (DELWP).
