Darwin Net Zero Project

The Darwin Net Zero Project covered five operational sites in the Darwin region. EPC Renewables delivered approximately 2.21 MWp of solar PV and 2.3 MWh of battery storage across the portfolio, with the systems connected through a combined inverter capacity of approximately 1.81 MVA.

A central Virtual Power Plant platform was implemented to monitor and coordinate solar generation and battery dispatch across the five sites. The VPP allows energy to be managed across the portfolio while also enabling excess generation to be exported to the Power and Water Corporation network under the relevant connection agreements.

The works included electrical and civil design, ground-mounted solar structures suitable for Wind Region C, metering, weather monitoring, protection studies, network compliance and commissioning in accordance with Northern Territory network requirements.
