As stated on the ARENA project page, the ‘need’ for the AGL Energy Solar Project is, “Knowledge gained through the construction and operation of large-scale, grid-connected solar power stations will help solar energy to play a bigger role in meeting Australia’s electricity needs.”
The project aimed to “increase knowledge in large-scale solar energy through the construction of two solar photovoltaic (PV) power stations…”
ARENA’s press release on 22 June 2016, “Project proposals show shrinking cost of big solar” showed that this aim had been met.
Specifically, the AGL Energy Solar Project achieved all of the project outcomes set out in the funding agreement.
