Australia to Set up World’s Largest Solar Power Plant

  • Australia is try to establishing a powerful solar energy center on largest area of ​​more than 30 thousand hectares.
  • The solar energy generated from this center will be transmitted to Singapore’s industries through a 4,300 km undersea cable.
  • The solar power energy center will generate around about six gigawatts of electricity annually.
  • The estimated cost of the project around about is 19 billion US dollars.
  • The solar power center will start supplying energy in 2030.

According to Australian official is working on huge plans to set up the world’s largest solar power plant, which will not only be used in Australian nation, but will also be supplied to Singapore.

The government of Australia has approved around about 30 billion Australian dollars for the solar panel project, which is nearly equivalent to 19 billion US dollars.

International Australian company, Sun Cable, will build a huge solar farm on an area of ​​more than 30,000 hectares (12,400 hectares) in which solar panels will be installed. The solar panels electricity generated in the solar farm will be transported to the northern city of Darwin at a distance around about 800 kilometers through transmission lines.

In the next phase, the solar electricity will be exported to Singapore industries by laying power lines under the sea, which will be used by the industrial sector there. Around about 4300 km long cable will be needed to bring solar electricity to Singapore industrial sector.

The project, you can called the Australia Asia Power Link, aims and vision to provide 6 gigawatts of very transparent and huge environmentally friendly energy every year.

Australian Government Official Environment Minister Tanya Philbursk says that with the construction of this solar power project, Australia as a nation will emerge as a renewable energy and superpower on the around the world map and this project will play an very important and environmentally friendly role in advancing Australia’s economy.

It will be a too unique and too massive example of solar power system infrastructure, Philbursk said in a written statement on Wednesday. It will be the world’s largest solar farm, positioning of Australia as a global leader in renewable, friendly and transparent energy.

The official project was initially backed by Australian mining magnate Andrew Forrest and Atlassian co-founder Mike Cannon. The information and plans were unveiled during Singapore’s then Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong’s officially visit to Australia as part of a ‘green economy‘ deal in 2022. At that time, Anthony Albanese was the prime minister of Australia.

But in January 2023, the solar panel project ended due to a funding dispute between Forrest and Canon Brooks and SunCable’s as a voluntary and friendly involvement in the massive deal. Then in September of the same year, a consortium led by Brooks acquired the solar panel project.

SunCable CEO Cameron Grinsworthy said that the solar panel project’s hurdle has been cleared and we are now working on achieving the solar panel project’s second target of 2027.

According to the company says that this solar panel project will start officially supplying electricity in early 2030. Australia’s economy is very heavily dependent on the internationally export of coal and gas, and it is also a very hot and important topic in Australian politics.

Australia’s also heavy reliance on fossil fuels has made Australia one of the world’s largest emitters of greenhouse gases.
