ʻO ka mea hoʻomohala hou o Farani ʻO Neoen nui 460 MWp mahiʻai solar ma Queensland's Western Downs region ke neʻe wikiwiki nei a hiki i ka hoʻopau ʻana me ka mea hoʻohana ʻoihana mokuʻāina ʻo Powerlink e hōʻoia ana ua paʻa ka pili ʻana i ka pā uila.
ʻO ka mahiʻai lā nui loa o Queensland, ʻo ia ka ʻāpana o ka Neoen's $ 600 miliona Western Downs Green Power Hub e komo pū ana me kahi pākaukau nui 200 MW/400 MWh, ua hōʻea i kahi milestone nui me ka pili ʻana i ka pūnaewele hoʻouna o Powerlink i hoʻopau ʻia.
ʻO ka luna hoʻomalu o Neoen Australia ʻo Louis de Sambucy i ʻōlelo ʻo ka hoʻopau ʻana o nā hana pili i hōʻailona ʻia he "milestone papahana koʻikoʻi" me ke kūkulu ʻana i ka māla lā e hoʻopili ʻia i nā mahina e hiki mai ana.Manaʻo ʻia e hoʻomaka ka hana ʻana o ka māla lā i 2022.
"Ke hoʻomau nei ka hui i ka hoʻopau ʻana i ke kūkulu ʻana i nā mahina e hiki mai ana a ke kakali nei mākou i ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka ikehu hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia iā CleanCo a me Queensland," wahi āna.
ʻO kanui 460 MWp mahiʻai lā, e hoʻomohala ʻia ana ma kahi kahua 1500-ʻeka e pili ana i 20 mau kilomita ma ka hikina hema o Chinchilla ma Queensland's Western Downs region, e hoʻohua i 400 MW o ka ikehu lā, e hoʻohua ana ma mua o 1,080 GWh o ka ikehu hou i kēlā me kēia makahiki.
Ua ʻōlelo ka luna nui o Powerlink, ʻo Paul Simshauser, ʻo ka hana pili pūnaewele e pili ana i ke kūkulu ʻana i ʻeono mau kilomika o ka laina hoʻouna hou a me nā ʻōnaehana pili i ka Western Downs Substation e pili ana i ka mea hoʻohana pūnaewele e pili ana i ka hui ʻo Queensland/New South Wales.
"ʻO kēia laina hoʻoili hou i kūkulu ʻia i loko o ka Neoen's Hopeland Substation, a ua hoʻoikaika ʻia i kēia manawa e kōkua i ka lawe ʻana i ka ikehu hou i hana ʻia ma ka māla lā i ka National Electricity Market (NEM)," wahi āna.
"Ke kakali nei mākou i ka hana pū ʻana me Neoen e hana i ka hoʻāʻo hope a me ka hoʻokō ʻana i nā mahina e hiki mai ana ke hoʻomau nei ka holomua ʻana o ka mahiʻai lā."
Loaʻa i ka Western Downs Green Power Hub ke kākoʻo o ke aupuni mokuʻāina ʻo CleanCo i loaʻae kūʻai i 320 MWo ka mana o ka lā i hana ʻia, e kōkua i ka mokuʻāina e holomua i kāna pahuhopu o50% ikehu hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia e 2030.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo luna o CleanCo Queensland ʻo Jacqui Walters e hoʻohui ka Hub i ka mana nui o ka ikehu hou no Queensland, e hoʻonui i ka ikehu e hiki ai ke hoʻohana i nā hale 235,000 me ka pale ʻana i 864,000 tonnes o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o CO2.
"ʻO ka 320 MW o ka ikehu o ka lā a mākou i hoʻopaʻa ai mai kēia papahana e hui pū me ka hui kūʻokoʻa o CleanCo o ka makani, ka wai a me ka hana kinoea a hiki iā mākou ke hāʻawi i ka ikehu hilinaʻi haʻahaʻa i ke kumukūʻai hoʻokūkū no kā mākou mea kūʻai aku," wahi āna.
"He kuleana ko mākou e lawe mai i 1,400 MW o ka ikehu hou hou ma ka pūnaewele e 2025 a ma o nā papahana e like me ka Western Downs Green Power Hub e hana mākou i kēia me ke kākoʻo ʻana i ka ulu a me nā hana ma Queensland kūloko."
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Kuhina Energy Queensland ʻo Mick de Brenni, ʻo ka mahiʻai lā, kahi i hoʻāla ai ma mua o 450 mau hana kūkulu, ʻo ia ka "hōʻoia hou o ka hōʻoia ʻana o Queensland ma ke ʻano he mea hou a me ka hydrogen superpower".
"ʻO kahi loiloi hoʻokele waiwai a Aurecon e manaʻo ana e hoʻonui ka papahana ma mua o $ 850 miliona ma ka hana hoʻokele waiwai holoʻokoʻa no Queensland," wahi āna.
"ʻO ka pōmaikaʻi hoʻokele waiwai e manaʻo ʻia ma kahi o $32 miliona i kēlā me kēia makahiki no ka hoʻokele waiwai o Queensland, ʻo 90% ka mea i manaʻo ʻia e pōmaikaʻi pololei i ka ʻāina ʻo Western Downs."
ʻO ka papahana kahi ʻāpana o nā manaʻo makemake o Neoen e loaʻa i nā mea ʻoi aku10 GW o ka mana i ka hana a i ʻole ke kūkulu ʻia e 2025.
