About Mannum Solar Farm Stage 2
Stage 2 of the Mannum Solar Farm was the second project in Epic’s Mannum Energy Park in the Riverland region of South Australia.
The project was acquired by Epic in August 2022 from its developers Canadian Solar ahead of construction, with operations commencing in 2024.
Stage 2 operates independently of Epic’s initial Mannum Solar Farm with its own connection to SA Power Network’s distribution network and uses Trina bifacial panels and single-axis tracking system, along with Sungrow inverters.
Orora Limited is the foundational customer for the project under a long-term agreement to help meet the energy and sustainability requirements of its Gawler glass manufacturing facility.
