Located in Victoria's Central North REZ
The Glenrowan Solar Farm is a 130MWac solar project located 2km south-west of Glenrowan, in the Rural City of Wangaratta, approximately 230 kilometres north-east of Melbourne, Victoria.
The location sits within Victoria’s Central North Renewable Energy Zone (REZ), one of six across the state supporting the Victorian Government’s Renewable Energy Target (VRET) of 50% by 2030 and the transition to a carbon-neutral future.
Once in full operation, the solar farm will supply renewable electricity to the national electricity market, generating power for approximately 55,000 Australian homes.
Planning and environmental management
The project is nearing the end of its construction phase, which is due for completion in May 2024. See our project's planning permit here and read more about our approach to planning and environmental management by clicking the Fact Sheet link below.
The project has created 92 annual employment equivalent jobs during construction, with three ongoing jobs during operation of the solar farm.
Operations and renewable energy generation started at the end of 2023, as we undertook testing and commissioning. This is now complete and we are preparing for full operation in Q2 2024.
