Tailem Bend Solar and Collinsville North Solar 200MW photovoltaic power plants

Overview:

• The Tailem Bend Solar PV Project and Collinsville North Solar Project are twin large-scale solar projects in Australia, with a combined total generation capacity of over 200MW.
• The projects are being developed by Equis Funds Group, Asia’s largest independent renewable energy developer and investor.
• The Tailem Bend project includes a 127MW solar farm and a 132/3KV substation alongside a Snowy Hydro owned 28.8MW diesel-fired power station that will purchase all of Tailem Bend's power for at least 22 years.
• The initial development of a 100MW solar project in Collinsville North is also due to commence later in 2017.
