POWERING HOMES AND INDUSTRY
Risen Energy developed and currently operates the 132MW Merredin Solar Farm in Merredin, WA.
Located approximately 260km east of Perth, it is Western Australia’s largest completed solar plant.
Its output of 274GWh of electricity annually generates enough green energy to power approximately 42,000 homes.
Through a PPA signed with BHP in February 2021, the solar farm also supplies BHP Nickel West’s Kwinana Refinery with 50MW of Merredin’s capacity until 2031, covering up to 50% of the refinery’s electricity use.
In doing so, the solar farm is making a major contribution to Western Australia’s greenhouse gas reductions.
Powering Toowoomba.
The Yarranlea Solar Farm, owned and operated by Risen Energy, is situated on 250ha of sparsely vegetated farmland about 50km west of Toowoomba.
The solar farm has a generation capacity of up to 103MW, enough to power up to 32,000 homes.
