5MW Solar PV electricity generation plant Dandaloo Road, Narromine
Western Regional Planning Panel
The proposal includes a no larger than 5MW grid-connected solar PV installation. The solar farm will be connected to Essential Energy's network via a 22 kV distribution line running adjacent to the southern boundary of the site.
The PV arrangement will consist of approximately 147 ground mounted single axis trackers. The PV arrays will have a clearance above the existing ground surface and extend to approximately 2.58m at maximum tilt. A 4m wide access road is proposed connecting the solar farm to Dandaloo Road adjacent to the eastern boundary of the site, approximately 1.3 km west of Derribong Avenue. The solar farm will be fully fenced with 2.3m high security fencing including barbed wire at the top. During the construction period there is estimated to be up to 30 personnel on site for up to 6 months.
