A proposed 400MWdc solar farm project and battery energy storage system (BESS)

Our proposed Gundary Solar Farm project consists of a 400MWdc solar farm and battery energy storage system (BESS), located southeast of Goulburn, New South Wales, within the local government area of Goulburn-Mulwaree Council.

We have submitted the Scoping Report and Social Impact Assessment (SIA) Scoping Report to the Department of Planning and Environment (DPE). These reports informed the DPE’s preparation of the Secretary’s Environmental Assessment Requirements (SEARs) for the Project, which we received in November 2022. You can view the Scoping Report and SEARs via the below link.

We are currently undertaking the detailed assessments that will form the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), in accordance with the requirements of the SEARs. The outcomes of these assessments, along with further community engagement, will inform the Project design and impact management and enhancement. Submission of the EIS and detailed studies is expected in Q2 2023.
