AGL Energy, an Australia-based energy solutions provider, will deliver a microgrid renewable system for Koompartu Farms in the Riverland region of South Australia. The project, spanning 15 hectares, will include a 9.2 MWh solar PV single-axis tracking array with more than 15,600 solar panels, a 10.2 MWh battery energy storage system made up of four 2.55 MWh units, 16 diesel backup generators, and 19 km of underground high voltage power lines. The microgrid is designed to improve local grid capacity and provide the reliability needed to keep critical irrigation systems operating, with diesel genset usage expected to fall by 88%. The project is being delivered under a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement, with AGL building, owning, operating, and maintaining the assets and supplying power to RRG, allowing Koompartu Farms to stay focused on production.
