A second commercial scale community solar project has been launched in Australia. The 400 kW rooftop installation will be installed in Sydney and is being organized by Embark.
In what it hopes will be a pilot project, non-profit community renewable energy developer Embark has released plans to develop a 400 kW rooftop installation on the new Sydney International Convention, Exhibition and Entertainment Precinct.
While details on the project are scarce, Embark will collaborate with investor Lend Lease. Lend Lease is a part of the consortia developing the precinct.
The park is planned to be completed once the site is ready in 2016. In a statement announcing the installation, Embark said it will draw on experience it has built in community renewable energy assets elsewhere in the country. “It is anticipated this park will be a living example of how to develop medium scale solar,” the group said in a statement.
