Solar Choice was the originating developer of the Gannawarra Solar Farm securing the site and early-stage development approvals before the project was acquired by Edify Energy.^[3] It was first connected to the grid by Powercor Australia in April 2018. It is 94.9% owned by WIRSOL, a brand of Wircon GmbH and 5.1% owned by the developer Edify Energy who is also the longterm asset manager of the project.^{[citation needed]} It consists of JA Solar modules with ATI DuraTrack mounting system and SMA 2500 SC-EV inverters. It was financed in a single package with the Whitsunday Solar Farm and Hamilton Solar Farm, both in Queensland, which projects were also developed and are managed by Edify Energy.^[1] The engineering, procurement, and construction was provided by RCR Tomlinson.^[4]

The Gannawarra Solar Farm is integrated with the Gannawarra Energy Storage System consisting of a 25 MW / 50 MW·h Tesla Powerpack battery (2 hours). This project was developed and is 50.01% owned by Edify Energy, who also manage this project. Edify started operating a 185 MW / 370 MW·h battery energy storage system (2 hours) at the same site in 2025.^[5]
