The system was constructed in four months by Paradise Energy who will continue to monitor the system for optimal maximum power production.

The concrete manufacturer will buy electricity produced from the array under a fixed-rate 25-year power purchase agreement signed with Sunstream Energy, a sister company of Paradise Energy.

The project was partly financed by the Department of Treasury’s 1603 grant programme, which covered 30% of the project costs.
