Queensland\u2019s latest renewable success, Dulacca Wind Farm on the Western Downs, was officially opened on October 18th 2023 by Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk.  Co-existing on agricultural land, the project actively contributes to the Queensland Government’s target of 50% renewables by 2030 and provides much needed generation diversity on the electricity network.  As well as delivering significant economic benefits locally, the project will power the equivalent of 124,000 homes every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk commented:<\/strong> \u201cThe Dulacca Wind Farm represents a significant moment in Queensland\u2019s energy transformation, twelve months on from the establishment of the Queensland Energy and Jobs Plan, and highlights our commitment to cleaner, cheaper energy for Queenslanders. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re not just powering Queensland, we’re contributing to a global shift toward decarbonisation, and CleanCo, Queensland\u2019s publicly owned clean energy generator is at the forefront.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a part of the Palaszczuk Government\u2019s Queensland Energy and Jobs Plan which is all about a future of cheaper, cleaner, and secure energy for Queenslanders, powering good jobs across the state. Companies such as RES and Octopus will continue to play in an important role in supporting our energy transition.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matt Rebbeck, RES CEO Australia commented:<\/strong> “The official opening of the Dulacca Wind Farm is a significant milestone in our mission to create a future where everyone has access to affordable zero carbon energy.  We are proud to contribute to Queensland\u2019s renewable energy goals as well as driving local investment and employment. <\/strong>We look forward to powering the homes and businesses around the state with clean, affordable and reliable energy from this state-of-the-art wind farm.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We acknowledge and thank the Barunggam people, the traditional custodians of the land on which Dulacca Wind Farm stands, for their continuing engagement. The contribution of Australia\u2019s First Nations people, to the health and wellbeing of Country, is everlasting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainable practices<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The team at Dulacca Wind Farm went above and beyond in their sustainable practices, recycling 95% of steel waste and 90% of timber waste from turbine packaging as well as 15,000 cans used by workers over construction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dulacca Wind Farm has demonstrated that community engagement and contribution can go further than traditional funding. While financial contributions in the form of community funds is highly valued by communities, there are other opportunities to create immediate benefits locally. Over $25,000 of steel and timber fixings were donated to the trade program in the local High School in Miles with more being picked up by businesses and locals for use on their farms and properties.
