Goorambat East Solar Farm
The proposed Goorambat East Solar Farm is a renewable energy development located about 12 kilometres north of Benalla and about 500 metres to the south of the Goorambat township in Victoria, on the land of the Yorta Yorta people.
ENGIE entered into a commercial arrangement with Neoen to purchase the project in 2023.
The site is about 630 hectares across five private rural properties in the Benalla Rural City Council local government area and is primarily accessible from the Goorambat-Chesney Road, Spinks Lane and Saunders Road.
The project involves the construction, commissioning and operation of an up to 250 Megawatt (MW) solar farm that aims to provide affordable and reliable, clean energy for Victorian homes and businesses. Up to 200 jobs are expected to be created during the peak of construction.
A planning permit for the solar PV array and connection assets was approved in December 2019 by Benalla Rural City Council.
The Goorambat East Solar Farm is a community-led initiative supporting utility-scale renewable development for the Goorambat area.
