The future happens here PHOTOVOLTAIC PLANT Moree Moree, New South Wales / Australia VISIT WEBSITE PLAY Summary Moree Solar Farm is a 70 MWdc PV plant located about 10km south of Moree in New South Wales, Australia. The plant was one of the largest solar power plants in Australia at the time of its construction and it was the first large-scale solar project in the country to use a single-axis tracking system that continually orients its solar panels with the sun to increase their power output each day. Moree Solar Farm received US$ 77.9 million in funding support from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) and a debt finance commitment of US$ 35.2 million from the Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC). The plant’s output is connected to Essential Energy’s distribution network, allowing the solar power plant to supply electricity into the grid and trade in the National Market. Construction was completed in 2016 and it has an operating life of around 30 years.
