Wooroora Station Wind Farm
The project area is within Wooroora Pastoral Station, a large cattle grazing property about 15 km south of Ravenshoe.
Wind measurements show particularly high night-time wind speeds which would complement Queensland's overall energy mix. In addition to an excellent wind resource, the site is close to road transport and the transmission network, and includes existing disturbed areas and Powerlink access tracks that the project can utilise.
The design involves 42 wind turbines and associated infrastructure, connected to the existing 275 kV powerlines.
