The first signs of life have been shown at Genex’s 50MW Jemalong solar farm in central west NSW, with the project showing a small burst of electricity output for the first time.
Genex has constructed the Jemalong solar farm in central New South Wales, just west of Forbes, after acquiring the development rights to the project from Vast Solar, which had hoped to build the country’s first large scale solar thermal plant, but decided to search for areas with better solar resources.
According to Global-Roam’s Paul McArdle, generation data for the Jemalong power station shows the project briefly commenced its first exports of electricity on Tuesday.
