From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Lakeland Solar Project is a solar farm at Lakeland in Far North Queensland, Australia. The 23 hectare site is positioned off the Mulligan Highway. The project combines big battery storage with big solar.[1] It consists of 41,440 solar panels.[1] Construction began in October 2016.

The solar farm uses islanding to supply power to Lakeland without connecting to the wider grid.[1] The power station can generate 13 megawatts (MW) of power.[2] The battery is rated at 1.4 MW/5.32 MWh.[2]
