In 2017, Photon Energy had plans to build a proposed 144-megawatt solar farm on the Lockyersleigh property on the Carrick Road and estimated to generate 100 jobs.

Comprising 360,000 solar panels, the 144-megawatt farm was pegged for a 200-hectare site.

The proposal at the time stated that the solar farm will be located on the south eastern corner of the Lockyersleigh property on Carrick Road due to the close proximity to the high voltage network.
