Australia approves world’s ‘largest’ solar hub

Australia has approved plans for a massive $24 billion solar and battery project called SunCable, set to be the world’s largest solar precinct. The project aims to power three million homes, with energy production starting in 2030. It will provide 4GW for domestic use and 2GW to Singapore via undersea cable. Backed by tech billionaire Mike Cannon-Brookes, the project marks a significant step in Australia’s transition to renewable energy. AFP
