Sandfire Resources NL/ Juwi Renewable Energy

OTOC Australia in conjunction with Juwi Renewable Energy completed the $40M DeGrussa solar power project which uses innovative solar diesel hybrid technology to reduce both operating costs and CO2 emissions.

The innovative project is the largest integrated off-grid solar and battery storage facility in Australia. Joint venture partner solar engineering company juwi, were responsible for the engineering, procurement, construction, operation and maintenance of the solar power facility.
