The Cunderdin Solar Farm, a 128 MW DC photovoltaic solar system, is a significant addition to Western Australia’s renewable energy landscape.
The farm spans 165 hectares and includes a 55 MW / 220 MWh battery energy storage system.
The Cunderdin Solar Farm plays a crucial role in Western Australia’s renewable energy future. It generates 200 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of clean energy each year. This displaces the need for traditional fossil fuels. As a result, the farm prevents the release of 145,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) annually. This is a significant environmental benefit. It’s like planting millions of trees.
Building a large solar farm requires careful planning. This is especially true in locations like Cunderdin. You need to effectively manage a workforce. TradeConnex played a vital role. They provided over 40 skilled laborers for mechanical and electrical work.
TradeConnex also enhanced logistical support. They arranged accommodation for the workers. They also provided transportation to and from the job site. This improved efficiency and made the work environment more positive.
The Cunderdin Solar Farm is a success story. It shows how combining solar technology with a skilled workforce can deliver significant results. This project demonstrates the importance of a well-supported workforce in achieving renewable energy goals.
