Sungrow and AGL Power NSW Almond Farm with Cutting-Edge Solar and Storage Technology

Sungrow has partnered with AGL Energy to power the Kerarbury almond farm in Griffith, New South Wales. The collaboration brings cutting-edge solar and battery storage technologies to the agricultural sector, aiming to reduce reliance on fossil fuels while ensuring stable, cost-effective energy for farm operations. The project is part of a broader move by Australian agriculture to embrace clean energy and strengthen resilience amid rising environmental and economic pressures.

The Kerarbury project features Sungrow’s SG4950HV-MV power conversion system and its advanced PowerTitan liquid-cooled energy storage solution, paired with over 10,000 solar panels. With a total installed capacity of 5.99 MW, the system is projected to generate approximately 14,000 MWh of clean electricity annually — enough to cut around 7,500 metric tons of CO₂ emissions each year. Achieving an estimated 83% renewable energy penetration, the initiative reduces energy costs and showcases the potential of agrivoltaics to transform farming practices and deliver long-term environmental and economic gains.

“At AGL, we’re proud to support forward-thinking initiatives like the Kerarbury almond farm project that bring together clean energy innovation and agricultural resilience,” said Brendan Weinert, Head of Sustainable Business Energy Solutions at AGL Energy. “Partnering with Sungrow to integrate storage solutions is a powerful example of how the energy and farming sectors can work together to drive meaningful emissions reductions, improve energy reliability, lower costs, and build a more sustainable future for regional communities,” Mr. Weinert added.
