The world's largest solar field in Australia is about to start

Super-giant solar fields in the state of South Australia are rushing to be completed in preparation for official operation. With 3.4 million solar panels, it will generate up to 1.1 million batteries.

This super-giant construction project is expected to be completed by the end of this year, when it will surpass all other solar power plants in the world in terms of total exploited energy, despite its size. Not the biggest place.

Lyon, the investor of the project, said: The capacity will reach 330 megawatts (MW) enough to power tens of thousands of homes, and at least 100 MW can be stored.

South Australian governor Jay Weatherill said: "These types of projects represent our future world, they recreate their energy and provide us with clean energy to use."

When completed, the plant will be 4,000 square meters, with a total construction cost of $ 1 billion, which could reach 330 MW in the first 18 minutes and reach 110 MW in the first hour. This amount of electricity will be used for future emergency power outages.

The use of renewable energy in South Australia has been a much-debated issue for years, with frequent blackouts contributing to this issue to meet the energy needs of the next year.

This problem in the state of South Australia has become so serious, that the billionaire Elon Musk also offered to put his technology in, the Powerwall 2 rechargeable battery from his Tesla Company can be engraved. all problems here in just 100 days.

The company's rechargeable batteries solve energy storage problems in many parts of the world, they store energy and are put to use flexibly when the Sun goes down, the wind stops blowing or the the area is out of power.

South Australia is a sunny and windy place, favorable conditions to fully exploit clean energy supplies. It is also the state with the highest level of renewable energy use in the country.

The state government said the new project will be one of many projects designed to help Australia double its renewable energy output from now to 2020.

"The combination of solar power and spare battery storage will significantly enhance the potential of South Australia. We cannot stand outside the demand for solar cells as in the general trend of these countries. world, " said David Green, Lyon's partner.

Not only this factory, we want to see other factories around the world built and put into operation, because the purpose of energy becomes cheaper, more storage, reduced dependence on energy. Non-renewable jelly while we still can.
