Curyo Wind Farm

• Project typeWind Farm
• Contractor nameCubico Sustainable Investments

The Curyo Wind Farm project seeks to establish a wind energy facility comprised of up to 162 wind turbines located to the south of the township of Woomelang and is estimated to generate up to 1,000 megawatts. The project also proposes the co-location of a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS).

The proposed wind farm will be located on land across the Yarriambiack Shire and Buloke Council areas.

The proponent, Cubico Sustainable Investments, has sought advice from the Minister for Planning on whether an Environment Effects Statement (EES) is required for the Curyo Wind Farm. Therefore, a planning permit is now required to construct a building or carry out works associated with accommodation located on land in the Farming Zone within one kilometre of the title boundary of the land where the wind energy facility is proposed as specified under Clause 35.07-4 of the Yarrimbiack Planning Scheme.
