Description
Description | The Rottnest Island Water and Renewable Energy Nexus (WREN) project offers an inspiring example of how innovative deployment of hybrid renewables can increase the power supply security and sustainability of an off-grid island and drive water desalination.Key resultsRottnest Island was heavily reliant on diesel fuel to supply its electricity needs.Hydro Tasmania/Entura upgraded the Rottnest Island power system with:Solar Farm 600 kW DC, 500 kW ACDistribution line to solar farmDynamic ResistorDiesel and feeder control system replacementHybrid Control systemDemand Side Management of the Desalination Plant.Rottnest Island is now almost 45% powered by renewables, and up to 95% at times of high wind and solar generationThis means lower costs and less emissions, and a far more secure future for the island’s power and drinking water – which are critical to maintaining tourism. |
