Yalaok South and Moorabool windfarms get approved

Planning permits for the Moorabool and Yaloak South wind energy facilities south of Ballan have been approved.

The $750 million Moorabool Wind Farm will comprise 107 wind turbines and have the capacity to produce up to 321 megawatts of energy, enough to power more than 125,000 homes.

The $130 million Yaloak South Wind Farm comprises 14 wind turbines and has a total capacity of 29 megawatts, enough energy to power 11,400 homes.

“These wind farm projects will together provide an $880 million boost to Victoria’s regional economy. They will create up to 260 jobs during construction as well as up to 34 ongoing operation and maintenance jobs once the facilities are completed,” said Minister for Energy and Resources Peter Batchelor.

“These decisions support regional development and renewable energy in the right locations to achieve a more sustainable future for Victoria.”

Mr. Batchelor said the two windfarms would provide significant economic investment and jobs in regional Victoria.
