Australian Waroona Energy Inc. announced the commencement of a Definitive Feasibility Study for a 120MWdc solar facility at the company’s Waroona renewable energy project in Western Australia.
The DFS will be completed in early 2024, ensuring the solar facility development remains on track to commence in the first half of 2024.
Given the significant work already completed, the DFS will be released in early 2024.
The company continues to advance a study for a 120MW green hydrogen-fuelled peaking plant that remains on track for completion in 4Q2023.
A peaking plant was identified as an early consumer of green hydrogen, given it’s a proven technology, the market is already in place (electricity) and no legislative changes are required for its development
Adam Kiley, President and CEO, said: The development of a solar facility is central to the company’s long-term strategy to diversify across a number of areas of the renewable energy sector. This strategy will include solar production, hydrogen production (through solar energy) as well as hydrogen consumption (through a peaking plant).
