About

Numurkah Solar Farm is a solar photovoltaic power station near the town of Numurkah in the Australian state of Victoria.
At its commissioning in 2019, Numurkah was the largest solar farm in Victoria. It cost A$198 million and generates up to 112MWp of AC electricity (installed 128MW DC). It is a leader in harnessing clean energy and retaining the use of farmland via sheep agistment (Agri-Solar). It presently runs upward of 1600 sheep over its 1200 acres. Its primary customers are the Melbourne tram network and Laverton steel works under a power purchase agreement, despite many believing the power goes to these locations directly, the site puts power into the local grid. The Laverton steel works is a scrap iron recycler owned by the GFG Alliance.
