Neoen has officially inaugurated its 412 MW Goyder South Wind Farm, now the largest wind farm in South Australia and the biggest asset in Neoen’s global portfolio. Located near Burra in South Australia’s Mid North, the project consists of 75 wind turbines and is built in two stages.
The wind farm is expected to generate 1.5 TWh of renewable energy annually, boosting South Australia’s wind generation capacity by over 20%, supporting the state’s target of 100% net renewables by 2027.
Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs)
Goyder South is backed by three long-term agreements:
- 100 MW – 14-year PPA with ACT Government
- 40 MW – 10-year PPA with Flow Power
- 70 MW – Renewable baseload agreement with BHP
The deal with BHP is the first of its kind in Australia, providing renewable energy to power its Olympic Dam mine in South Australia with support from Neoen’s Blyth Battery.
