Ararat Synchronous Condenser Project
Sector: Solar • Location: Ararat, Victoria, Australia
Source: pv magazine Australia
Construction of a 250 MVA synchronous condenser at the Ararat Terminal Station in western Victoria to strengthen the energy grid and enable connection of up to 600 MW of solar and wind energy generation. The project aims to provide system stability and support the transition to renewable energy by providing inertia energy, dynamic voltage support, and increased short-circuit capacity.
