A South Australian racecourse has now become a fully operational DC-coupled solar and battery farm. The Berri Energy Project, owned by retailer Flow Power, is part of the company’s strategy to build up to 50 MW of mid-scale (sub 5 MW) projects to supplement its offtake portfolio, Flow Power COO Byron Serjeanston told <b>pv magazine Australia</b>.

Renewable energy retailer Flow Power claims that the integrated technology behind a new “smart” solar farm in the town of Berri, South Australia, is the first of its kind to be switched on in Australia.

Flow Power says "smart" solar farm on old racecourse is Australia’s first fully operational utility-scale DC-coupled solar and battery system.
