HP Profiles supplied HPP-PE48S split HDPE conduit to the Goulburn River Solar Farm, one of Australia's most significant utility-scale renewable energy projects currently under construction in the Upper Hunter Region of New South Wales.

The project is being developed by Lightsource bp, a bp company, and sits between the villages of Wollar and Merriwa, on Wollara Road. At 585MWdc installed capacity, it represents an estimated capital investment of A$880 million, with the EPC contract awarded to DT Infrastructure, a wholly owned subsidiary of Gamuda Berhad, valued at A$625 million.

Construction commenced in December 2024 and is expected to span approximately 27 months, creating up to 350 construction jobs during that period. Once operational, the farm will generate approximately 1,309,000 MWh of renewable electricity per year, enough to power the equivalent of 225,000 Australian homes, while avoiding an estimated 910,000 tonnes of CO2e annually and meeting up to 4% of NSW electricity demand at peak output.

HP Profiles supplied PEFLEX® 48 mm split HDPE conduit (HPP-PE48S) for Goulburn River Solar Farm. The conduit was supplied for cable protection and management within the project's electrical infrastructure.

The split conduit can be fitted around existing cables without disconnecting or reterminating them. PEFLEX® is manufactured from HDPE and is designed for flexibility and UV resistance in outdoor applications.
