In addition to this, FRV has developed an advanced pipeline of battery projects in different countries.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This project is FRV\u2019s ninth project in Australia becoming part of a total of approximately 640MWdc owned projects\u2019 portfolio. Only last year, FRV reached 3 financial closes in Australia alone clearly demonstrating its&nbsp;continuing strong commitment to grow and consolidate its unique portfolio of solar and storage assets in the country.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Dalby Hybrid Facility is expected to create job opportunities during construction and operations and, in this sense, FRV requires all construction partners working on its solar farm developments to hire local contractors and utilize local suppliers wherever possible.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Expected to be operating at full capacity by early 2022, Dalby Hybrid Power Plant represents FRV&#8217;s first hybrid project announcement after the Company&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/frv.com\/\">international rebranding<\/a>, and moves the organization closer to its goal of leading the global energy transformation through continuous improvement and consolidation of sustainable, secure and affordable energy models in the communities in which it operates.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"applewebdata:\/\/1E41063B-74D0-4137-B8E2-03DDDF6E7066#_ftnref1\" name=\"_ftn1\"><\/a><\/p>\n","search_term":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16547","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16547"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16547\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16552,"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16547\/revisions\/16552"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16548"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16547"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16547"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/frv.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16547"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
