Wind Farm
The Capricornia Energy Hub has the potential for other renewable energy components, in addition to Pumped-Hydro Energy Storage (PHES). These energy components could potentially supply the PHES or the grid.
Locations near the PHES are currently being assessed to determine if a wind project would be viable.
If the project is considered feasible and is pursued, approvals would be sought at the appropriate time.
In a setting such as the one being investigated, turbines selected would typically be 6MW in capacity with a height of about 165 metres.
