A 90MWdc solar farm and battery energy storage system (BESS)
The Wunghnu Solar Farm project consists of a 90 MWdc solar farm and battery energy storage system (BESS). The solar project is located on Reillys Pit Road, Wunghnu, in the Goulburn Valley Region of Victoria. Development approval was received from Moira Shire Council in June 2018. The solar farm is situated on 222 hectares of agricultural land, which has been predominantly used for cropping.
The solar farm has an installed capacity of 90 MWdc, producing 188,300 MWh of clean, renewable electricity a year. That’s enough to power 27,152 homes, avoiding 150,640 tonnes of carbon emissions annually, the equivalent of taking 62,745 cars off the road.
