MELBOURNE: Atlassian Corp co-founder Mike Cannon-Brookes has pledged to help fund an ambitious A$20 billion project to supply solar power from northern Australia to Singapore by a subsea cable, an Australian newspaper reported on Wednesday .
"I'm backing it, we're going to make it work, I'm going to build a wire," the Australian Financial Review quoted Cannon-Brookes saying in an interview on the sidelines of the United Nations Climate Action Summit in New York. The project, which has been given major project status by the Northern Territory to help fast-track approvals, would include battery storage.Cannon-Brookes, who has been a vocal advocate for renewable energy in Australia, said the project could also expand to produce hydrogen fuel, which could be exported to markets such as Japan.
