The Whyalla City Council plans to add to Sanjay Gupta’s renewable energy innovations for the city by adding a $145m solar powered greenhouse for a horticulture business and a $6m green organic recycling project to other renewable initiatives in this area of South Australia. This is part of the council’s Whyalla City Transformation Blueprint.
The solar powered horticultural greenhouse facility, which would farm a number of high value crops, will be built by China-owned Beijing Enterprises Water Group, in a deal stuck by the Whyalla City Council.
At the same time Sanjay Gupta announced an upgrade to his Whyalla Steelworks (to be powered by solar, battery and pumped hydro) and work has begun on Adani Renewables Australia’s 200MW solar farm to the north of Whyalla.
