RCR Tomlinson Ltd announced yesterday it has been chosen as the preferred Engineering, Procurement and Construction contractor for two new large-scale solar farms in Australia.<\/p>\n

Subject to financial close, the company will be providing EPC plus operations and maintenance (O&M) services associated with the Clermont Solar Farm (Stage 1) and Wemen Sun Farm.<\/p>\n

Clermont Solar Farm<\/a>, located a few kilometres south west of the town of Clermont in central Queensland, is a 150MWac project to be constructed in two 75MW phases. Using solar modules on single-axis trackers, the project is expected to boast one of Australia’s highest per-unit energy yields.<\/p>\n

Construction of the facility will generate up to 200 jobs per phase and is expected to be completed next year.<\/p>\n

The 88MWac Wemen Sun Farm will be located outside Wemen, Victoria, which is approximately 110 kilometres from Mildura<\/a>. That facility is scheduled to be connected to the grid mid-2018.<\/span><\/p>\n

The developer of both facilities is Wirsol Energy Ltd.<\/p>\n

“The Australian market plays an exceedingly important role for our international growth strategy,” said the company<\/a> back in September when it acquired the Wemen Sun Farm project. “In coming years, we will be making a significant contribution to the expansion of renewables and setting up important power production facilities with our solar parks.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Wirsol has five solar farms in construction in Queensland and Victoria, with a total solar generation capacity of\u00a0 ~400MWp, all of which are scheduled to be connected to the grid by mid-2018. The company said it also had additional projects in its pipeline totaling approximately 670MWp.<\/p>\n

Once Clermont Solar Farm and Wemen Sun Farm are commissioned, RCR will initially provide O&M services for two years, with options for up to a further 13 years.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very pleased to continue our strong relationship with Wirsol to deliver these two large-scale solar energy projects,” said<\/a> RCR Managing Director & CEO, Dr Paul Dalgleish. “We are now supporting Wirsol in the development of over 200MWac of renewable energy solar projects.”<\/p>\n

Last week, RCR Tomlinson also announced it had been awarded a contract to commence work under a Limited Notice to Proceed (\u201cLNTP \u201d) for the 100MWac Haughton Solar Farm, which is being developed by Pacific Hydro.<\/p>\n

The site of Haughton Solar Farm<\/a> is in central Queensland\u2019s Burdekin Shire, 40km west of Ayr and 60km south of Townsville<\/a>. Pacific Hydro has planning approval to build out to 500MWac capacity, which it says would be enough to supply the equivalent of 170,000 households.<\/p>\n

RCR Tomlinson is also the EPC contractor for the Daydream and Hayman solar farms<\/a> in Queensland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
