A Queensland cattle farmer has raised environmental and economic concerns with one of the largest-ever solar farms in Australia being built next to his property.
Danish company European Energy has plans to build four renewable energy sites covering 6,000 hectares near the Gladstone export hub as a part of their Pacific Solar Hydrogen Project. The 3,600-megawatt project is estimated to produce up to 100,000 tonnes of green hydrogen a year and generate enough power for 1.5 million homes, according to European Energy.
