Wind Energy
GULLEN RANGE WIND FARM
The Gullen Range Wind Farm would contribute to the generation of renewable energy in NSW. It would help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing our reliance on coal fired power stations and help fix the shortfall in power generation in the State. Based on an 84 turbine layout, the Gullen Range Wind Farm could supply clean, renewable energy for up to 73,500 average NSW homes and reduce gas emissions in NSW by up to 588,000 tonnes (of CO2 equivalent) per annum.
LOCATION
GULLEN RANGE WIND FARM
Gullen Range Wind Farm will be located approximately 25km North West of Goulburn, NSW, Australia.
WIND TECHNOLOGY
