Solar technology firm PVHardware (PVH) has secured a new partnership with Global Power Generation Australia (GPG Australia) to supply advanced solar trackers for two significant renewable energy projects—the Glenellen and Bundaberg Solar Farms.  

These farms are expected to deliver a combined 360MW of electricity, marking a major boost to Australia's renewable energy capacity. 

PVHardware VP of Sales Trevor De Vries.

"These projects will not only improve our presence in the Australian market, but they will also generate local jobs and significantly contribute to the region's energy generation capacity," stated PVH's VP of Sales, Trevor De Vries. 

Monford Group has been selected as the main contractor for both sites, in accordance with the partnership's commitment to prioritising locally sourced goods and services. 

The collaboration is a notable achievement for PVH, which has grown its portfolio to 2.6 GW in Australia. 

The Glenellen Solar Farm in New South Wales is slated to be operational by the end of 2025.  

The 260MW facility will feature more than 370,000 solar modules and represents GPG Australia's first foray into Agrisolar—a model that integrates agriculture with solar power generation, minimising the impact on valuable farmland. 

Meanwhile, the Bundaberg Solar Farm in Queensland, with a planned capacity of 100MW, is expected to begin operations in the third quarter of 2025.  

The project will generate approximately 200GWh of clean energy annually, enough to power around 36,000 homes and cut carbon emissions by an estimated 170,000 tonnes each year. 

PVH will supply 260MW of its Monoline2P trackers for Glenellen and 100MW of Monoline1P trackers for Bundaberg, tailoring its technology to each site's specific needs.
