The project will help support local economic growth and grid stability in the Riverland region.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cBerri Barmera Council is committed to developing the Riverland region as a renewable energy leader through the delivery of a predictable and cost-effective renewable energy supply,\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/berribarmera.sa.gov.au\/webdata\/resources\/files\/Media%20release%20Solar%20EOI%20(Council).pdf\">said<\/a> Berri Barmera Mayor Peter Hunt.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is currently being negotiated with a local industry customer with a large electricity load<sup class='endnote'><a href='https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/berri-solar-farm-mb0724\/#en-23877-1' id='enref-23877-1' onclick='return hhEndnotes_show(23877)'>1<\/a><\/sup> profile.\u00a0It&#8217;s envisaged the negotiations will result in a 15 year PPA at an agreed rate.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00a0&#8220;Revenue from this project will support the Council\u2019s budget and reduce the need for increasing rates to fund services and infrastructure expected by the community,&#8221; said Berri Barmera Council CEO Andr\u00e9 Stuyt.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A site inspection and briefing will occur early next month and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tenders.sa.gov.au\/tenders\/tender\/display\/tender-details.do?id=43880&amp;action=display-tender-details\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the EOI<\/a> close date is October 4. Preferred parties selected will be issued with a request for tender in November this year.<\/p>\n<p>Berri Barmera Council is looking to the solar farm&#8217;s construction occurring between March and August next year.<\/p>\n<p>Council has been offered a grant of just over $5 million under the State Local Government Infrastructure Partnership (SLGIP) to go towards the project and has access to discounted finance through the Local Government Finance Authority.<\/p>\n<p>The council sees the solar farm as &#8220;transformative&#8221; for the region.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;From the opportunity to address energy security and cost issues for major local business and employers, to generating long-term revenue and reducing pressure on Council\u2019s long-term financial plan, this positive ripple effect will be widely felt,\u201d Mr Stuyt said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Among the various other benefits of the solar farm will be an estimated 132 full time jobs during construction, 3 full time positions during the operation of the plant and associated economic activity within the region. Community economic benefit is one of the selection criteria to be used in screening potential development partners.<\/p>\n<p>Berri Renewable Energy Solar Generation Facility will provide a big boost to the area&#8217;s PV capacity. According to Australia&#8217;s Clean Energy Regulator, there are approximately 820 small-scale solar power systems (&lt;100kW) installed in the 5343 postcode, representing around 5.24MW of capacity in total.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Expressions of Interest are now being called for the development of the Berri Renewable Energy Solar Generation Facility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":23878,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[678],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23877","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-solar-battery-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.5 (Yoast SEO v28.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>EOI Opens For Solar Farm In Berri, South Australia - SolarQuotes Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Expressions of Interest are now being called for the development of the Berri Renewable Energy Solar Generation Facility.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/berri-solar-farm-mb0724\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"EOI Opens For Solar Farm In Berri, South Australia\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Expressions of Interest are now being called for the development of the Berri Renewable Energy Solar Generation Facility.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/berri-solar-farm-mb0724\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"SolarQuotes Blog\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SolarQuotes\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2018-08-28T20:05:16+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/berri-barmera-solar.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"471\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Michael Bloch\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@solar_quotes\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@solar_quotes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.solarquotes.com.au\\\/blog\\\/berri-solar-farm-mb0724\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.solarquotes.com.au\\\/blog\\\/berri-solar-farm-mb0724\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Michael Bloch\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.solarquotes.com.au\\\/blog\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/66afd571aa00c2e442f0192ebac2f6f1\"},\"headline\":\"EOI Opens For Solar Farm In Berri, South Australia\",\"datePublished\":\"2018-08-28T20:05:16+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.solarquotes.com.au\\\/blog\\\/berri-solar-farm-mb0724\\\/\"},\"wordCount\":520,\"commentCount\":0,\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.solarquotes.com.au\\\/blog\\\/#organization\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.solarquotes.com.au\\\/blog\\\/berri-solar-farm-mb0724\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.solarquotes.com.au\\\/blog\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2018\\\/08\\\/berri-barmera-solar.jpg\",\"articleSection\":[\"General Solar &amp;
