Project Description

EA – Australia Project (Perth, WA – Client Confidential)

Project Type: Utility-scale Solar PV
Capacity: 40 MW
Status: Completed – fully operational since late 2023
Timeline: Construction completed within 12 months; COD achieved in 2023

Technical Approach:

  • EA’s U.S.-made monocrystalline modules (~20%+ efficiency).

  • Single-axis tracker mounting system optimized for Australian solar resource.

  • Direct feed into WA’s SWIS grid; no storage (peak-hour generation focus).

  • Among top-performing plants in WA by capacity factor in its class.

Partners:

  • Local Australian renewable developer (client confidential).

  • EPC: Joint team with Ganymede engineers.

  • Synergy (state-owned utility) – off-taker via long-term PPA.

  • Supported under Australia’s renewable target incentive framework.

Project Rationale & Impact:

  • Provides clean electricity for ~15,000 WA homes.

  • Reduces ~70,000 tons of CO₂ annually.

  • Demonstrated EA’s ability to deliver on-time, on-budget projects in Australia.

  • Validated the use of imported U.S. panels in a competitive Australian market.

Verification:

  • Listed in EA’s official portfolio of operational plants.

  • Performance data confirmed by Australia’s Clean Energy Regulator, with strong capacity factor results.

  • Coverage in regional trade media highlighted this solar farm as a benchmark project in WA.
