China's leading energy equipment producer Shanghai Electric Group is making a mark in international markets by signing a strategic partnership deal with SIMEC Energy Australia on Monday to jointly build a renewable energy project in South Australia.

Under the agreement, Shanghai Electric will build the Cultana Solar Farm project in the southern part of the country through an engineering, procurement and construction agreement.

The project is the largest ground-based photovoltaic project in Australia, and also marks Shanghai Electric's entry into the country.
