The NSW Independent Planning Commission has approved the Burroway Solar Project, a renewable energy development proposed approximately 18 kilometres north of Narromine within the Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone (REZ) in the Narromine Shire Council Local Government Area (LGA).
The project was proposed by Edify Energy Pty Ltd, which sought approval to construct a 100 MW solar farm along with a 100 MW / 400 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS).
In addition to the solar and battery facilities, the development will include temporary workers’ accommodation, a substation, and a connection to the existing 132 kV transmission line that runs through the project site.
A small subdivision is also proposed to accommodate the substation infrastructure.
The project was assessed as a State Significant Development (SSD) and was referred to the NSW Independent Planning Commission for determination after more than 50 public objections were submitted to the Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure during the assessment period.
A two member panel met with key stakeholders, conducted a site inspection and locality tour, and received 12 written submissions.
The Commission also scheduled local public consultation, but no community members registered to participate.
Solar projects paired with battery storage are increasingly being deployed across Australia.
Recently, Octopus Australia began construction of the Blind Creek Solar Farm and Battery project in New South Wales, which combines a 300 MW solar PV plant with a 243 MW / 486 MWh battery energy storage system.
