The 75 MW Wyalong Solar Farm, developed and operated by Greek resources and renewables company Mytilineos, is now operational.
Around 62% of the Wyalong Solar Farm’s output is contracted to NBN Australia, the company’s Senior Manager Energy and Climate Change, Mark Jones, said.
The 10-year power purchasing agreement (PPA) will see NBN Australia receive 90 GWh of solar energy per annum. Jones added that the Mytilineos deal was the “first in a series of renewable PPAs for nbn.”
