VivoPower International PLC, an international solar and critical power services company, has announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary in Australia, J.A. Martin Electrical Pty Limited has recently been awarded a contract to complete all electrical works for the 39 MWdc Molong Solar Farm.
Located 40 kilometers northwest of the town of Orange in New South Wales, the project will be the second Australian solar farm completed by J.A. Martin in partnership with lead contractor Grupo Gransolar (GRS). The Molong project brings J.A. Martin’s total of completed and contracted solar farms to over 150 MWdc, a milestone reached within 3 years of commencing solar operations.
Expected to be energized later this year, the Molong Solar Farm will generate enough clean energy to power nearly 11,000 homes and avoid over 53,000 tonnes of CO2 per year. Construction of the facility will create about 160 local jobs.
