Located in central Queensland, approximately 20km west of the town of St Lawrence the project will consist of 46 Vestas wind turbines.
Zenviron has entered into a consortium with Vestas to deliver the project for CS Energy under an EPC Contract.
The wind farm will deliver renewable, low-cost energy to the National Electricity Market (NEM) and contribute to the QLD Government’s net-zero emissions target by 2050 and significantly contribute to the 2032 70% renewable energy target. The project will provide a significant amount of new generation capacity required as coal-fired power stations are retired over the next decade. The site has strong winds, access to high voltage transmission lines and good road access with few neighbouring properties
Zenviron’s has been appointed the Principal Contractor on site as well as scope for the Balance of Plant works inclusive of accommodation camp, bulk earthworks, access tracks and hardstands, bridges, concrete batching, WTG foundations, 275/33KV wind farm substation 275/33KV, MV cable reticulation, 33KV internal overhead transmission and approximately 18km of public road upgrades for Department of Transport and Main Roads.
The project will create jobs for up to 400 workers at the peak of construction and is expected to commence in Q4 2024 with completion of the overall facility in late 2027.
