Case Study
Solar Thermal Plant
Located just north of Griffith in the central west of NSW, the solar thermal plant at Lake Cargelligo, which is on the outer limits of the main power grid, was designed to provide peak load support and reduce the town’s susceptibility to blackouts and power instability.
The facility consists of eight modules and a steam turbine. It commenced producing electricity in May 2011. Flavourtech provided engineering support and a number of switchboards for this project which included the supply of a 3200A, 50kA, Form 3 rated design. The entire project was delivered within the specified timeframe and met all the requirements outlined by the local authorities.

In partnership with his sons, Philip and Keith, Jim Atkinson has established one of the largest family run tomato growing operations in Australia, located on the eastern outskirts of Griffith, NSW. The Atkinson family are responsible for supplying Woolworths with many of the truss tomato products in NSW and Victoria.
Flavourtech supplied a new 1000A Main Switchboard to help cope with the ever expanding site which included emergency generator back-up protection and allowance for existing and future solar infrastructure.
Case study 3: Age Care Facility
The Gannon family has built a solid reputation over the last 25 years for building some of the most successful retirement estates in the country, including: Wodonga Gardens, Tamworth Gardens and Griffith Retirement Estate.
