Massive NSW wind and battery project gets federal approval to replace coal, drought-proof farms
The huge wind farm had been awaiting a decision from the federal environmental minister since getting the green light from the state in December of last year – a first for the wind industry in NSW since early 2021. The project will now work towards locking in technology partners and a final investment decision.
According to Virya Energy’s plans, the project will be spread over eight different land holdings in the Murrumbidgee and Edward River Local Government Areas, helping to “drought-proof” their farming operations – a detail that clashes with the National Party narrative that renewables are the bane of the agriculture industry.
