ust off the Barrier
Highway, a new "big" Australian landmark is on the cusp of completion
with the installation of the final solar panel at the Broken Hill Solar Plant.
ARENA, AGL and First Solar today joined NSW Minister for
Industry, Resources and Energy, the Hon Anthony Roberts MP and NSW Minister for
Environment and Heritage, the Hon Mark Speakman on site to see the last of
677,760 solar panels installed.
Acting ARENA CEO Ian Kay congratulated AGL and First Solar
on the milestone.
“There is a real sense of momentum driving large-scale solar
in Australia today. The Broken Hill and Nyngan solar plants are already supplying
power to Australian homes and we now have $350 million available through ARENA
and the Clean Energy Finance Corporation, which will further accelerate growth
in the sector,” Mr Kay said.
