Supporting our local economy
Local jobs
The project will require up to 300 jobs during construction and operation creating significant employment opportunities for the local region.
Based on other equivalent solar farm projects built in Australia, up to 50 per cent of employment opportunities will come from the local or regional area.
Local contractors
We will work with the local Chambers of Commerce to make sure local service providers and contractors are aware of work opportunities.
Our contractors will look for the right skills amongst local residents and businesses, and ensure the jobs stay local wherever possible.
Local businesses
Employment is stimulated not only in the construction and maintenance of renewable projects, but all the way through the local business supply chain. This benefit is shared by cafes, pubs, B&Bs, fuel and hardware suppliers, vehicle and machinery servicing, as well as many other businesses.
