Projects invited to submit a Full Application

The 22 EOIs are seeking $332 million for projects totalling $1.68 billion to deploy large-scale solar farms in Queensland (10), New South Wales (8), Victoria (2), South Australia (1) and Western Australia (1).
ARENA's large-scale solar competitive round is designed to support the development of approximately 200 MW of large-scale solar capacity and reduce costs.
An additional 200 MW would significantly boost Australia's large-scale capacity, with the combined 440 MW total of large-scale solar able to generate up to 860,000 MWh of electricity each year, enough to power 120,000 average Australian homes.
22 high merit projects have been selected to proceed to the full application stage. The projects are located in all mainland states and have a total capacity of 766 megawatts (MW).
More info about the scope of activity and application deadlies can be accessed from ARENA here.
