Project Status
Developing a solar farm is a complex and time-consuming process that typically takes several years. It involves various stages including securing land rights, obtaining permits, design and construct and operation. Even with careful planning and coordination, projects may stall or be discontinued. For these reasons FRV is committed to ongoing communication with project stakeholders as to the project’s status.

FRV is readying for construction commencing 2025
FRV is preparing for construction and is working with its contractors to design and plan for construction works. FRV hopes to commence construction in 2025.
FRV is currently preparing a range of management plans which will be submitted to City of Greater Bendigo and the Shire of Campaspe for endorsement. These plans will detail the construction methodology and will develop a set of mitigation measures to ensure the project is carried out in a manner that minimise impacts to surrounding neighbours and the natural environment.
