We’re excited to be working with Tetris Energy and Canadian Solar to expand our solar offering in South Australia.
The 30MW Mannum 1 Solar Farm, located in the South Australian town of the same name, will join Flow Power’s ever-growing portfolio of renewable generation and expand its offering to South Australian businesses.
In agreement with developer Tetris Energy and new owner Canadian Solar, Flow Power will contract a percentage of the generation from Mannum 1 Solar Farm to drive our Corporate Renewable Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). Included in the deal is a separate LGC agreement, which will also support our Corporate Renewable PPAs.
The Mid-Murray region is home to several intensive agricultural businesses. Our offtake agreement with Mannum 1 Solar Farm will help to power South Australian businesses, giving them greater access to long-term and cost-effective renewable linked energy solutions.
Pernod Ricard Winemakers, which signed onto a Corporate Renewable PPA with Flow Power last November, will be one of the first businesses to benefit from this agreement. Solar generation, delivered by Mannum 1 Solar Farm, will support the winemaker’s ambitious commitment to match use from the grid with 100% renewable generation by mid-2019.
This latest offtake agreement demonstrates the growing appetite for PPAs in both the South Australian and broader national market.
Matthew van der Linden, CEO of Flow Power comments: “We’re pleased to be working alongside Tetris Energy and Canadian Solar to deliver more effective, low-cost and renewable energy solutions to businesses in the Mid-Murray region and beyond.”
Helen Strachan, Pernod Ricard Winemakers’ Legal and Corporate Affairs Director, says: “This is another exciting development for our business as we move towards our 100% renewable electricity goal, and for the broader industry providing cost effective renewable energy solutions. We are proud to be leaders in defining the future of sustainable business in a rapidly changing environment.”
