The
project
will
be
built
in
Mildura,
in
the
southeastern
state
of
Victoria.
The
city
saw
its
solar
ambitions
knocked
back
late
last
year
when
the
180MW
Mallee
Solar
Park
was
rejected
funding
by
the
government
agency
overseeing
Australia’s
Solar
Flagships
programme.
The
grid-connection
agreement
for
the
Mildura
project
was
facilitated
by
Clean
Technology
Partners,
a
PV
engineering
consultancy
based
near
Melbourne,
with
which
Belectric
has
announced
a
framework
agreement
for
subsequent
Australia
projects.
“Australia
offers
excellent
conditions
for
PV
energy
production
and
is
one
of
the
growth
markets
of
the
future,”
says
Lachlan
Bateman,
managing
director
of
