IGO's sustainable mining, 5B powered

2019 Port-Bonython-SA-Roll-Out-WM02 5B Maverick site preperation-pads down Atacama Chile 5B Maverick - Advanced Manufacturing ann-matt-des-wayne

A fast way to deploy utility scale solar. On a much smaller footprint.

Speed is key in the race to decarbonise

5B Maverick deploys up to 10x times faster than conventional solar technologies, delivering earlier power generation and an unprecedented ability to scale up solar developments.

Unlock more solar sites

5B Maverick generates up to 1.6x more power per hectare than conventional solar technologies unlocking the potential to increase energy generation on sites and making it ideal for land constrained locations.

Smarter workforce utilisation

Reduce time spent on key onsite activities by roughly 80% compared to conventional solar technologies, including geotechnical, mechanical, and electrical engineering with the prefabricated 5B Maverick.

Safer teams. Smoother projects

Prefabricated in a controlled automated factory, 5B Maverick reduces teams’ exposure to hazardous working conditions, lowers weather-related construction delays and mechanical failures.

We’re on a mission to solve the climate crisis via solar innovation

Our vision is of a world where abundant, accessible, and affordable power from the sun meets all our energy needs.

Our name 5B, is a reference to the almost infinite amount of energy potential in the 5 billion years of sunshine the earth has left, designed to provoke the question; ‘How will we use it?’
