Arche Energy provided pre-acquisition due diligence to Pacific Partnerships in relation to the successful acquisition of the Glenrowan Solar Farm in regional Victoria.
The assignment included a comprehensive review of the development stage of the project, the site’s suitability for construction, the suitability of the approvals and the network connection arrangements.
Arche Energy assessed the project in light of proposed transmission upgrades under the Victorian Renewable Energy Infrastructure Roadmap.
The Roadmap is part of the Victorian Government’s plan to attract renewable energy investment and jobs to the state by enabling communities to better understand the possibilities for renewables in their region.
The energy sector uses roadmaps as modelling tools to strategically address complicated issues for energy generation in different regions.
This Roadmap includes insights like the location of transmission lines, areas where certain types of infrastructure are prohibited, windspeed, dwelling density, and substation strength.
