TRAGOWEL
Exclusive Hybrid BESS Solar Farm - Victoria.
Tragowel Solar
Farm Property
ABOUT TRAGOWEL
Located in Victoria’s sun-rich Gannawarra region on Barapa Barapa Country, the Tragowel Solar Farm is a large-scale renewable energy project spanning 1,002 hectares across 11 freehold titles. The project will deliver a 480 MW(ac) solar farm paired with a 395 MW / 1,580 MWh battery energy storage system, harnessing some of the state’s highest solar irradiation levels—averaging 8 sun hours per day. Once operational, Tragowel will supply enough clean, dispatchable electricity to power over 160,000 Victorian homes annually, supporting the state’s transition toward 50% renewable energy by 2030.
Project Overview
ABOUT ROMANO & DANIELS
Tragowel Solar Farm spans 1,002 hectares across 11 consolidated titles in Victoria’s sun-rich Gannawarra region. With approvals in place for a large-scale renewable energy facility, the site benefits from prime solar exposure—averaging 4.97 kWh/m² per day—and proximity to the proposed VNI West interconnector and new terminal station. Positioned to support Victoria’s 50% renewable energy target by 2030, Tragowel represents a landmark opportunity in utility-scale solar generation and infrastructure growth.

KEY FEATURES
Productive Land Use Compatibility
The Tragowel Solar Farm is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing agricultural operations across its 1,002 ha of flat, farm-zoned land, allowing the site to continue supporting regional farming productivity alongside large-scale renewable generation.
Environmental Stewardship
Comprehensive assessments across ESO, LSIO and SCO overlays ensure responsible development with minimal ecological impact. The project’s low-impact footprint supports biodiversity protection and long-term landscape resilience throughout the Gannawarra region.
Regional Economic Growth
Situated within Victoria’s most active renewable energy corridor, Tragowel contributes to regional development by attracting investment, enabling energy security, and supporting the local economy as the region transitions toward large-scale clean energy infrastructure.
Support for Victoria’s
Energy Transition
With 480 MW of solar and a 395 MW / 1,580 MWh BESS, Tragowel will provide enough clean, dispatchable energy to power over 160,000 homes, directly supporting Victoria’s 50% renewable energy target by 2030 and reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
Infrastructure Alignment & Community Benefit
The project benefits from the proposed VNI West transmission line and new terminal station, strengthening grid reliability across north-west Victoria and enabling future community energy initiatives aligned with local government priorities.
