Gannawarra Solar Farm is a photovoltaic solar power station in the Gannawarra Shire, 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) west of Kerang in the Australian state of Victoria. It generates up to 60 MWdc electricity[1] and exports up to 50.61 MWAC to the National Electricity Market at 66 kV.[2]
Solar Choice was the originating developer of the Gannawarra Solar Farm securing the site and early-stage development approvals before the project was acquired by Edify Energy.[3] It was first connected to the grid by Powercor Australia in April 2018. It is 94.9% owned by WIRSOL, a brand of Wircon GmbH and 5.1% owned by the developer Edify Energy who is also the longterm asset manager of the project.[citation needed] It consists of JA Solar modules with ATI DuraTrack mounting system and SMA 2500 SC-EV inverters. It was financed in a single package with the Whitsunday Solar Farm and Hamilton Solar Farm, both in Queensland, which projects were also developed and are managed by Edify Energy.[1] The engineering, procurement, and construction was provided by RCR Tomlinson.[4]
The Gannawarra Solar Farm is integrated with the Gannawarra Energy Storage System consisting of a 25 MW / 50 MW·h Tesla Powerpack battery. This project was developed and is 50.01% owned by Edify Energy, who also manage this project.
