Vast Renewables has executed engineering contracts with Afry, FYFE, Primero and Worley to complete Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) on its VS1 project, a 30 MW concentrated solar power (CSP) plant to be located in Port Augusta, South Australia.
Utilizing Vast’s modular tower CSP v3.0 technology, the company says VS1 is expected to generate power with more than eight hours of thermal energy storage. The project will be co-located with Solar Methanol 1 (SM1), a green methanol demonstration plant slated to use electricity and heat from VS1 to produce the fuel for use in shipping.
FEED is expected to be completed by August ahead of a Final Investment Decision and construction starting later this year.
“This is a major step forward for Vast and VS1, putting this historic CSP project on the path to construction,” says Craig Wood, CEO of Vast. “Afry, FYFE, Primero and Worley will bring the right combination of global and local expertise to VS1, which will utilize our industry-leading technology to capture and store the sun’s energy during the day before generating heat and dispatchable power during the day or night.”
The Australian Renewable Energy Agency has approved AUD$65 million in funding to support the construction of VS1.

For those who struggle with elementary school arithmetic, Trump won the election (50%+ approval) out of more than 150 million votes cast, and now his approval rating is in the low 30s.
That’s ~30 million voters who regret their choices, out of the common American.
Add in the Tucker Carlsons of the world.
Absolutely.
It must be done, because our country is home to some hateful morons who want to see honest, hardworking, taxpaying people with brown skin deported, and their families torn apart.
It wasn’t the American way until recently, but it sure is now.
As shown at left, the United States is loaded with people who twist the facts to their liking.
