About the project
The Project
OX2 is planning the Euleilah Solar Farm and Battery, featuring a solar farm of up to 360MW and a battery energy storage system (BESS) with storage capacity of approximately 300MW across a project area of approximately 550 hectares.
The site is adjacent to Hills Road at Euleilah, QLD, approximately 12km north of Rosedale, 60km northwest of Bundaberg and approximately 90km southeast of Gladstone, on private land.
The project will connect to QLD’s electricity network via a switching station linked to the existing Gin Gin to Wurdong 275kV transmission line. A new overhead line will be required to connect the project to the existing network.
The Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)
The BESS will store energy for use when it's needed most. It will provide reliable and affordable power, helping utilities quickly deliver electricity during peak times, outages, or shortages. This will improve energy security for QLD.
Planning Approval Process
We intend to seek development approval under the Planning Act 2016 for QLD. We are in the early stages of development and are preparing the planning and technical assessments for a development application.
The Project will also be referred to the Department of Energy Efficiency, Climate Change and Water under the Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Act 1999 (EPBC Act) to understand if Commonwealth approval is required.
The Project is expected to deliver affordable, clean, and reliable electricity for Queensland while offering economic, social, and environmental benefits.
