The Largest Solar Power Station in the World!

The Australian government approved a plan on Wednesday to build a massive solar power station in the northern part of the country, in a project that it confirmed will be "the largest solar energy area in the world." Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek stated, "This massive solar farm will generate enough electricity to power three million homes." The minister explained that the project includes solar panels and batteries, and later it will be connected via a cable to Singapore for energy export. Plibersek added, "It will be the largest solar energy area in the world, making Australia a leader in green energy." The SunCable project, covering an area of 12,000 hectares, is located in the sunny Northern Territory and is supported by billionaire tech investor and environmental activist Mike Cannon-Brooks.
