Solar Farm Grid Connection Study

ITP Renewables worked with Suntech Pty Ltd to conduct the grid connection studies for two 5MW solar farms in the Griffith area. The solar farms will be built in two stages connecting to the same Griffith 33/11 zone substation, and ITP provided options to connect them that reduce augmentation costs. The studies will be undertaken to meet Chapter 5A compliance of the National Electricity Rules and utility requirements. ITP undertook the following studies:

• Connection Options Report
• Steady State Grid Impact Assessment
• Dynamic Stability Assessment
• Power Quality Compliance Assessment
• Frequency Injection Impact assessment
• Protection Coordination Assessment
• Connection Access Standards Documentation
