“The Goulburn Solar farm is significant because it’s a solar farm started by local local investors and also it’s the first project in Australia to combine our module energy storage and tracker [technology],” says Edison Zhou, Trina Solar head of Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands.
The Goulburn Solar Farm was a big topic of conversation at the Smart Energy Conference in Sydney last week. Peter Fraser and Andrew Bray, both directors of the Co-op, were at the conference, as was Jonathan Prendergast from Komo Energy. Peter and Jonathan met with staff from Smart Commercial, the EPC contractors to our project, and with Trina executives at the Trina booth. Trina are supplying the panels, battery and racking.
