Carawatha Solar Farm
Providing energy that is
Renewable
Reliable &
Affordable
Located approximately 9km west of the Finley township in the Riverina region of NSW, the Carawatha Solar Farm being developed by CleanPeak Energy is set for completion by mid 2025. The proposed 8.2MW photovoltaic electricity generating system will comprise close to 13,500 solar panels, ground-mounted on a single axis tracking system to follow the daily east-west movement of the sun.
The solar farm layout has been carefully designed to protect the environmental aspects of the site, minimise the removal of native vegetation and avoid areas of cultural sensitivity.
The clean energy generated at the Carawatha Solar Farm will help power Sydney’s iconic Barangaroo Precinct, advancing its net-zero agenda.
The Carawatha Solar Farm will be connected to the surrounding distribution network, expected to supply 16.7GWh of clean energy annually. That’s enough clean energy to avoid over 10,000 tonnes of CO2 being emitted into the atmosphere every year.
The clean energy generated by this in-front-of-the-meter solar asset each year will be equivalent to taking 2,000 fuel-burning cars off the road, or powering 3,000 average Australian homes.
