The development site is located around 14km south from the town of Balranald and was chosen for its large cleared area and proximity to a Transgrid 220kV substation. Considered a State Significant Development, the project first required approval at a state level, which it gained in September last year.<\/p>\n<p>Construction of the facility will see a peak of between 100-200 employees during construction and up to seven full-time positions during operation.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00a0 \u201cIt makes me proud that we can now start with the construction of our first utility-scale PV plant in Australia \u2013 one of the continents with the highest solar irradiation per square meter,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/news.innogy.com\/en\/innogy-starts-construction-of-australias-largest-solar-power-plant\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a> Hans B\u00fcnting, COO Renewables at Innogy SE.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Belectric is the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contractor for the project, as well as the Operation and Maintenance (O&amp;M) service provider. Innogy acquired Belectric last year.<\/p>\n<p>The company says it is exploring additional renewable energy opportunities in Australia including further solar, battery storage and wind projects via its Melbourne-based subsidiary Innogy Renewables Australia.<\/p>\n<p>Limondale was originally an Overland Sun Farming project and was to be 250MW. In February this year, Innogy announced its intention to acquire Limondale, along with Overland&#8217;s <span class=\"st\">115MW<\/span> Hillston project. Innogy SE says it anticipates the transfer of Hillston will be completed towards the end of this year.<\/p>\n<p>The planned investment involved with both projects is more than AUD $650 million.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;With the acquisition of two of Overland\u2019s Australian solar development projects, Innogy is entering into a strongly growing renewable energy market,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/news.innogy.com\/innogy-starts-in-australia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a> Uwe Tigges, CEO of Innogy SE earlier this year.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Innogy SE is a subsidiary of the German energy company RWE, which was created in 2016 by splitting the renewable, network and retail businesses of RWE into a separate entity. In March this year, it was announced E.ON will acquire Innogy.<\/p>\n<p>In other recent news from the company, earlier this month Innogy <a href=\"https:\/\/news.innogy.com\/en\/triton-knoll-officially-starts-onshore-construction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced<\/a> construction had officially commenced on the onshore aspects of the Triton Knoll offshore wind farm in Lincolnshire, England.
