The project will have 235 MWp of solar photovoltaic farm that is connected to about 270 MWh Lithium-Ion battery energy storage system. The hybrid energy complex will be built on 360 ha of area to generate enough power for the consumption of up to 82,000 homes. The construction works are expected to commence in late 2023.
