The proposal is for the development of an onshore wind farm and involves the construction and operation of up to 82 wind turbines, generating up to 550 megawatts (MW). Associated infrastructure includes temporary worker accommodation, a battery energy storage system (BESS), electrical cabling, transmission infrastructure, substation and other supporting infrastructure.
The proposal is located approximately 20 km south of Dandaragan, Western Australia. The wind farm substation will connect the proposal to the South West Interconnected System (SWIS) via the adjacent 330 kV transmission line, supporting the Clean Energy Link North infrastructure upgrade works.
The total proposed area of disturbance is 963.61 ha within a 12,473.12 ha development envelope (DE). The DE primarily consists of cleared agricultural land. No more than 84 ha of remnant native vegetation clearing is required within the DE (this includes degraded vegetation).
