Squadron Energy has disclosed that the construction phase of its Uungula wind farm project has officially begun. The 414MW power plant is being built in New South Wales, Australia, and will feature 69 turbines capable of producing enough power to meet the demands of more than 220,000 homes.
The facility, located 14km east of Wellington, will also include an energy storage element. GE Vernova is Uungula's turbine supplier and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor.
Uungula is calculated to avoid the emission of at least 560,000 tonnes of carbon per year once it's operational.
