The project forms part of the estimated 936MWdc (720MWac) which is being developed in two stages.

“The event is an important milestone for the energy transformation underway across NSW and Australia. I truly believe that the work ACEN Australia is doing to accelerate Australia’s transition to a renewable energy future is here and now – and it starts with New England Solar,” Anton Rohner, CEO of ACEN Australia, said. 

“We decided to build New England Solar on a full merchant basis to ensure it is online in time to help replace closing coal-fired power stations in NSW. We wanted to get things built, to decarbonize Australia.”
