A year after construction began in March 2018, BayWa's two wind farms located at Timboon West and Yawong has been inaugurated.
The project sites are amongst the windiest in the state of Victoria and each consist of two Vestas V126 3.6 MW turbines, stretching up to 150m tall at the tip of the blade.
Together, with a capacity of 14.4MW, the facilities will produce enough clean energy to power 9,000 Australian homes.
The wind farms will be sold together with 15-year O&M contracts with Vestas in place, and PPAs secured to sell 100% of the power to Alinta Energy.
BayWa r.e. will continue to be part of the projects as it provides ongoing commercial and technical management of the wind farms through its team in Melbourne.
