When it is finished, it will produce enough energy to power 42,000 homes, more than any other solar project commissioned to date in the country, and allow the annual reduction of about 200,000 tons of CO\u2082.<\/p>\n<p>The project, located 35 km southwest of Ayr, in northern Queensland, is currently under construction and is expected to begin operations later this year.<\/p>\n<p>Roberto de Diego Arozamena, Chief Executive Officer of Abdul Latif Jameel Energy, said: \u201cThis shows the growing strength and competitiveness of solar power, and we\u2019re determined to continue pushing the boundaries of renewable technologies in Australia and around the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll the projects we deliver are designed to maximize generation, and in this case 42,000 homes will be powered with clean energy, while at the same time allowing the annual reduction of about 200,000 tons of CO\u2082.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Abdul Latif Jameel Energy announced in January 2017 it had secured financial close for the $200 million solar farm. The plant is the first to obtain funding without Government subsidy through a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA).<\/p>\n<p>In May 2016, FRV signed a contract with the Australian energy company Origin Energy to sell 100% of electricity and large-scale renewable energy certificates produced by the plant
