112 MW solar PV project
Advised BayWa r.e. on the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract with BEON for the substation component of the future Karadoc Solar Farm—one of Victoria’s largest utility-scale solar projects, delivering 112 MW and powering around 65,000 homes. Key advisory services included:
Negotiating EPC contract terms with BEON, focusing on scope clarity, milestone schedules, performance guarantees, and integration risks.
Structuring risk allocation frameworks to balance liability and incentives across project delivery phases.
Ensuring technical compliance with NEM (National Electricity Market) grid connection standards and overseeing substation design interfaces.
Coordinating project delivery timelines with overall farm construction, commissioning logistics, and quality assurance processes.
This advisory engagement helped BayWa r.e. secure a robust contractual foundation for the Karadoc substation, enabling efficient project execution and supporting Victoria’s transition to renewable energy.
