SA Water’s 54km long Swan Reach to Stockwell pipeline was built to supply the Barossa Valley, Lower North and Yorke Peninsula areas in South Australia. It was first used in the 1960s and was designed to supplement existing water supply.
Enerven were engaged by SA Water to deliver two photovoltaic utility grade solar installations at the Swan Reach to Stockwell Pump Station 1 and the Swan Reach Raw Water Pump Station. This project further enables SA Water to meet the goals of its Zero Cost Energy Future Program.
Pump Station 1 and the Raw Water Pump Station saw the installation of 18, 940 solar panels on an IXL fixed-tilt ground mount racking system.
DRASOL site management and mechanical installation teams again worked closely with long-time client Pilecom, to successfully complete this project ahead of time and on budget.
