Project 26 | kW (solar &/or EE equivalent) |
MWh to date generated/avoided |
Approx* CO2 avoided to date |
Dollar value of achievement |
At Club Italia | 44.30 kW | 22.54 MWh | 22.54 t | $42,804 |
At subsequent projects | 2.82 kW | 0.00 MWh | 0.00 t | $3,501 |
Total | 47.12 kW | 22.54 MWh | 22.54 t | $46,305 |
Switch on date: 27/06/19.
Number of days in operation: 159.
* Since the amount of CO2 avoided is highly dependent on the fuel source used for local grid electricity, and since each CORENA project is in a different location, we have used 1MWh = 1 tonne as a rough approximation across all projects.
This project is now fully funded – Thank you!

65kW solar system consisting of 218 x 300 W Seraphim SRP-300-6MB solar panels, 2 x SolarEdge 27.6 kW inverters and 109 x SolarEdge P600 optimisers; Energy monitoring via SolarEdge Modbus Meter (generation) and 3 x CT Clamps (consumption) | $42,804 (plus $20,000 grant tp Club Itlalia from other sources) | Grid electricity avoided = 75,909 kWh/year Savings = $14,204/year |
* ‘Grid electricity avoided’ refers to the total solar generation per year. It is the amount of more carbon-intensive grid electricity that is avoided at the site + solar exports which are used by others on the grid.
