A track record of success

Epuron has a strong track record of development success in both wind and solar energy projects. It has obtained approval for over 700 wind turbines in NSW alone, with the majority of projects on track for construction.

 

Highlights

Cullerin Range Wind Farm

One of Epuron’s first projects, the Cullerin Range Wind Farm, was sold to Origin Energy in December 2007 and began operating in July 2009.

A testament to Epuron’s development expertise, this 30 Megawatt wind farm provided nation-leading performance in 2010 with the highest output per unit capacity of any wind farm located in the National Electricity Market.

Epuron was responsible for the development of the project from green-field through to development consent. Epuron subsequently procured the wind turbines and tendered the relevant balance of plant contracts before transferring the site to Origin Energy.

 

TKLN Solar

Epuron’s TKLN Solar project is under construction in the Northern Territory. TKLN comprises a 1 Megawatt solar power station with the proprietary Grid Stability System (“GSS”) supplying three remote communities in Australia’s outback.

The GSS is an innovative feature of this project – designed by Epuron, the GSS maximises solar energy input to the grid without interfering with the existing diesel generator control systems, thereby maximising fuel savings.

Epuron is responsible for the development, financing, construction and operation of the project, with the electricity sold under a long term Power Purchase Agreement negotiated by Epuron.

 

Silverton Wind Farm

In an iconic setting west of Broken Hill, the proposed Silverton Wind Farm has the potential to supply as much as 5% of NSW’s electricity needs. At up to 598 turbines, the project could be by far the largest in the southern hemisphere.

Originated by Epuron, Silverton Wind Farm is being developed under a joint venture with Macquarie Capital Wind Fund.

Epuron is responsible for the development of the project from green-field through to development consent. Epuron is also responsible for managing the land acquisition, grid connection and operates and maintains all wind monitoring on the site.

 

Wind Monitoring and SODAR

Epuron operates the largest network of tall wind monitoring towers in Australia, both for itself and for 3rd party clients. Its own wind monitoring network is the most extensive in Australia.

Epuron was the first company to deploy Fulcrum3D’s FS1 SODAR in the field, and is providing considerable expertise to Fulcrum3D allowing it to optimise its data QA and delivery systems.
