• Flow Power has secured 34 per cent offtake from WIRSOL Energy’s Clermont Solar Farm, located in Queensland
  • The project is expected to generate close to 180,000 MWh of renewable energy per annum
  • The offtake is equivalent to 30MW of generation capacity, bringing Flow Power’s total renewable energy portfolio to over 400MW across the NEM

Flow Power, one of Australia’s fastest growing electricity retailers and clean energy developers, has officially signed a 30MW Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the Clermont Solar Farm, its first PPA in Queensland.

The Clermont Solar Farm is located few kilometres southwest of Clermont in central Queensland, on Wangan and Jagalingou Country. The project is owned by WIRCON GmbH, parent company of WIRSOL Energy, one of Australia’s largest renewable energy players.

In recent years, Queensland has seen an accelerated demand for PPAs, and this new offtake agreement reflects Flow Power’s continued commitment and sustained effort in supporting Australia’s clean energy transition.

Under the 8.5-year agreement, Flow Power has secured 34 per cent of Clermont Solar Farm’s capacity. This agreement will enable Flow Power to provide Queensland’s commercial and industrial electricity users access to low-cost supply arrangements, linking their grid use to a renewable energy supply secured through a long-term PPA.

“Flow Power is delighted to be partnering with WIRSOL for our first PPA in Queensland. This PPA will enable us to continue providing energy users access to leading renewable energy projects while supporting our nation’s renewable energy transition. We would like to commend the WIRSOL Energy team for the quality of the Clermont Solar Farm and their excellence throughout the PPA process.”

Flow Power Chief Operating Officer, Byron Serjeantson

Since signing one of Australia’s first corporate PPAs in 2017, Flow Power has continued to lead the market with innovative energy product offerings and complementary energy management services and the support of renewable projects. The business has seen a significant demand increase in the last 12 months as energy prices have risen sharply across the National Energy Market.

“We are thrilled to partner with Flow Power for this PPA with our project, Clermont Solar Farm, and to provide Australian businesses access to supply arrangements linked to affordable, environmentally sustainable energy. Working with the team at Flow Power to finalise the PPA has been smooth and professional. Our team at WIRSOL share Flow Power’s vision of accelerating the clean energy transition and this agreement continues our mission of creating positive impact by protecting and promoting what matters most.”

WIRSOL Energy Managing Director, Sigi Psutka.

At the time of publication, Clermont Solar Farm has created over 585 construction jobs, several full-time permanent positions and has established a benefits scheme for the local community and Traditional Owners, The Wangan and Jagalingou people.
