The Brief

Provide a strategic site analysis for a potential renewable energy installation at Smithfield and other sites nominated by the Authority. Deliver a road map for ongoing stages and develop a clear and robust solution including a quality and cost-effective design solution.

 

The Challenges

  • Mapping the configuration of a proposed asset (solar park).

  • Providing a physical constraints and mitigation strategy.

  • Providing a technical outline of the proposed system (including battery storage) and options for the use of energy.

  • Estimating capital expenditure and investment returns.

  • Land use planning.

  • Graphic Design and Environmental Animation project staging.

  • Visualisations to indicate opportunities and constraints.

 

The Outcome

Delivery of an Options Paper which provides the decision-making trigger for two alternative next steps.

Step One: The Authority undertakes a Prefeasibility Stage which leads to the design, build and operation of the asset by the Authority.

Step Two: An investor undertakes the Prefeasibility Stage, designs, builds and operates the asset but leases the land from the Authority.
