EDF Renewables has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with CS Energy for the development of the 230 MW Banana Range onshore wind project located in the Banana Shire, in central Queensland, Australia.
The wind farm will have up to 50 turbines, enough to generate power for the consumption of about 15,000 local homes. Under this agreement, CS Energy is also considering purchasing clean energy from the project.
The installation and commissioning phase of the wind farm is expected to generate 150 jobs for locals. The construction of the project will begin in 2024 with target commissioning by 2026.
