en.Wedoany.com Reported - Trina Solar Co., Ltd.'s International System Business Unit (ISBU) announced that the Killawarra solar-storage hybrid project, developed by its Australian subsidiary Tathra Solar Farm and Battery Pty Ltd, has been successfully selected in the fifth round of Australia's Capacity Investment Scheme (CIS) (WEM Generation).
Located in the Mid West region of Western Australia, approximately 25 kilometers southwest of the town of Three Springs, the Killawarra project plans to construct 440 MW of photovoltaic power generation and 2.1 GWh of battery energy storage system. Once completed and operational, the project will deliver clean electricity to the South West Interconnected System, meeting growing industrial energy demand while further enhancing the reliability and flexibility of the regional power grid.
As an integrated energy project combining large-scale photovoltaic power generation and battery energy storage, the Killawarra project will help balance electricity supply and demand through coordinated solar-storage operation, providing strong support for Australia's energy transition. During the project's construction and operation phases, it will also actively explore opportunities to support local business participation and regional economic development, promoting coordinated local industrial growth.
Additionally, the project plans to explore the Agri-PV application model, achieving coordinated development of renewable energy generation and agricultural production, promoting efficient use of land resources, and providing a new practical pathway for the integrated development of sustainable agriculture and clean energy.
Edward Wang, Business Development Manager for Australia at Trina Solar's International System Business Unit, stated: "The successful selection of the Killawarra solar-storage hybrid project fully demonstrates the significant value of integrating photovoltaic power generation and battery energy storage in enhancing grid flexibility, reliability, and resilience. Trina Solar's International System Business Unit remains committed to providing comprehensive energy solutions, supporting Australia in achieving its decarbonization goals and contributing to its long-term energy security."
In recent years, Trina Solar's International System Business Unit has continued to expand its solar-storage integrated project portfolio in Australia, actively promoting the development of a more flexible, reliable, and resilient clean energy system, contributing to Australia's energy transition.
