About Wemen Solar Farm
Wemen Solar Farm is a single-axis tracking project, located in Victoria, an hour outside of the city of Mildura. The site has an installed capacity of approx. 110-megawatt peak (MWp) DC, spanning across an area close to 700 acres.
Owned by Gentari Solar Australia (formerly, WIRSOL Energy), Australia’s largest integrated renewable energy developer*, Wemen is considered one of the largest solar operations in the state of Victoria. Gentari Solar Australia is working hard to realise renewable energy systems of all sizes, using our extensive experience gathered from building more than 800MWp of renewable energy projects internationally.
Wemen Solar Farm is financed by the CEFC (Clean Energy Finance Corporation) and completed construction in October 2018 after an impressive 9-month build timeline. Now fully operational, the solar farm will produce enough energy to power approx. 34,000 homes in the region, whilst preventing the emission of approx. 117,000 tonnes of C02.
