4 Project Justification Environmental Assessment: Proposed Wind Farm, Cullerin NSW 4 PROJECT JUSTIFICATION 4.1 Project benefits Taurus Energy is committed to developing the Cullerin Range Wind Farm in a way which minimises the local impacts and maximises the benefits of the project. The project has been specifically designed as a small wind farm with only 15 turbines. The project offers: • Up to 15 wind turbines, each with three blades up to 46m long mounted on a tubular steel tower up to 80m high; • Production of up to 95,000 GWh of renewable electricity per annum, sufficient for the average consumption of up to 12,200 homes; • Reduction in greenhouse gas emissions of up to 95,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide (equivalent) per annum, equivalent to taking up to 19,000 cars off our roads for 30 years; • Savings in water consumption of 110 to 125 Million litres per annum of potable water used in coal fired power stations; • Annual savings in pollution from coal fired power stations of up to 538,000 kilograms of sulfur dioxide, up to 233,000 kilograms of nitrogen oxides, and up to 2090 kilograms of particulates; • Provision of a community fund of $25,000 per annum for local community and environmental projects; • Provision of local jobs and injection of up to $10 Million into the local economy; • Improved security of electricity supply through diversification. 4.2 The viability of wind power 4.2.1 International wind power development Wind farms are an increasingly important source of electricity generation worldwide. Internationally, by the end of 2005, the total capacity of wind energy was more than 58,000 Megawatts which amounts to over three times the total capacity of power generation in New South Wales. Approximately 72% of this has been installed in the last 5 years (AWEA 2005). Wind power technology has evolved rapidly through a research and development stage in the 1980’s, rapid expansion and consolidation in the industry in the 1990’s and is now a mature, advanced energy technology. As the technology has developed, the cost of wind power has been reduced. In some regions, wind farms are already competitive with alternate energy sources such as fossil fuels. Current Worldwide and European wind capacity (MW) is shown in Table 4.1.

New Zealand 0.1 0.1 168.2 Source: World Wind Energy Association press release 7 March 2006 Final 48 nghenvironmental Environmental Assessment: Proposed Wind Farm, Cullerin NSW According to a media statement released 1 February 2006 by the European Wind Energy Association (EWEA), the EU cumulative wind power capacity increased by 18% to 40,504 MW by the end of 2005, up from 34,372 MW at the end of 2004. In total, 6,183 MW of wind power capacity were installed in 2005, representing a wind turbine manufacturing turnover of some €6 billion. In this same media statement Prof. Arthouros Zervos, President of EWEA stated: “With the installation of a record 6,183MW in 2005, wind energy has achieved the European Commission’s 40,000MW target for 2010, five years ahead of time. This underlines the technology’s ability to deliver fast and vast amounts of clean energy.” This strong growth in recent years has led the European Union to review its projections for wind power capacity. Figure 4.1 shows that the EU projections to 2010 have recently been increased, from the original 40,000MW to a new expectation of over 72,000MW in Europe. Figure 4.1 European Union wind power capacity projections (EC 2006) Other markets are growing strongly in addition to this rapid growth in the European Union. China has the potential to be world’s biggest wind energy market by 2020, doubling its current wind energy target for 2020 to 20,000MW (Hydro Tasmania 2006). In the USA, 2,500MW new capacity was installed in 2005 with over 3,000MW expected in 2006 and similar growth in 2007 (AWEA 2006b). In many countries, even with already strong growth, governments are implementing policies to further accelerate the adoption of wind and other renewables for electricity generation. In a media statement in December 2005, the United Kingdom’s Energy Minister, Malcolm Wicks stated: Final 49 nghenvironmental Environmental Assessment: Proposed Wind Farm, Cullerin NSW "As an island nation, we would be foolish not to exploit to the full all the natural resources that affords. Research from Oxford University recently confirmed that Britain has the best wind resource in Europe, providing most energy during peak daytime and winter periods. I am wedded to increasing the amount of energy we source from this and other forms of renewables. This year, there's been record growth in the industry and our drive to reach our 10 per cent target by 2010 is undiminished." The European Wind Energy Association (EWEA) summarises many of the drivers for increased government support for wind as part of a balanced energy policy: “Wind energy is a significant resource; it is safe, clean, and abundant. Unlike conventional fuels, wind energy is an indigenous supply permanently available in virtually every nation in the world, delivering energy security benefits of eliminating fuel costs and long term fuel price risk, and avoiding the economic, political and supply risks of dependence on imports from other countries. Wind power has no resource constraints; the fuel is free and endless.” (EWEA 2005) 4.2.2 Wind power in Australia In Australia, the cost of wind energy is more than the cost of coal-fired electricity at the wholesale level. Wind farms are viable because of the Federal Government's Mandatory Renewable Energy Target (MRET). MRET requires electricity retail companies (such as Country Energy) to purchase a percentage of their power from renewable energy sources. The proposed Cullerin Range wind farm will provide renewable energy which is eligible for Renewable Energy Certificates under the Federal Government's scheme. The full costs of MRET have already been taken into account by electricity retail companies in power prices set by them. Therefore, the wind farm will not increase prices for NSW residents or businesses. In fact, it will reduce the costs of production by reducing transmission losses to the region. Many people in Australia do not acknowledge the government support that coal-fired generators have received over many years, and believe that schemes such as MRET are unwarranted. MRET was established in legislation to assist the development of this new industry in Australia, and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from power generation. By doing so, MRET (and wind farms) will provide a base for cheaper and cleaner power into the future. 4.2.3 Viability of this project The Cullerin Range wind farm would be developed by a private company. Accordingly, it is necessary for the project to provide an adequate financial return. The commercial viability is driven primarily by capital costs and the related cost of financing such projects. While the energy in the wind is free, the energy produced must make sufficient return to cover the high up-front costs of building the wind farm. In the case of this project, the commercial viability is supported by relatively low cost transmission line connections (from using the existing line onsite) together with good wind speeds which have been measured on the site. A number of elements included in this proposal, such as the installation of power lines underground, result in increased project costs to the proponents, and these higher costs have been accepted where they result in a project which is still commercially feasible. Final 50 nghenvironmental Environmental Assessment: Proposed Wind Farm, Cullerin NSW 4.3 Public attitudes towards wind farms The proposal would promote renewable energy and thereby limit greenhouse gas emissions associated with energy production and is in line with Federal and State government promotion of renewable energy, including: • The Commonwealth Government support for renewable energy provision through the National Greenhouse Strategy (NGS) and the Mandatory Renewable Energy Target (MRET); • The NSW government supports renewable energies through programs of the Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA) which has been incorporated into the Department of Energy, Utilities and Sustainability (DEUS), the NSW Greenhouse Gas Abatement Scheme and the NSW Greenhouse Office.

    Acknowledgements We would like to thank Monica Richter (World Wide Fund for Nature and the Science Based Targets Initiative), Anna Freeman (Clean Energy Council), and Ben Skinner and Rhys Thomas (Australian Energy Council) for kindly reviewing this report. We value the input from these reviewers but note the report’s findings and analysis are those of ClimateWorks Australia. We also thank the organisations listed for reviewing and providing feedback on information about their climate commitments and actions. This report is part of a series focusing on sectors within the Australian economy. Net Zero Momentum Tracker – an initiative of ClimateWorks Australia with the Monash Sustainable Development Institute – demonstrates progress towards net zero emissions in Australia. It brings together and evaluates climate action commitments made by Australian businesses, governments and other organisations across major sectors. Sector reports from the project to date include: property, banking, superannuation, local government, retail, transport, resources and energy. The companies assessed by the Net Zero Momentum Tracker represent 61 per cent of market capitalisation in the ASX200, and are accountable for 61 per cent of national emissions. Achieving net zero emissions prior to 2050 will be a key element of Australia’s obligations under the Paris Agreement on climate (UNFCCC 2015). The goal of the agreement is to limit global temperature rise to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and to strive for 1.5 degrees. 2 Overall, energy sector commitments are insufficient for Australia to achieve a Paris-aligned SUMMARY transition to net zero. Australia’s energy sector This report finds none of the companies assessed are fully aligned with the Paris climate goals, and must accelerate its pace of most fall well short of these.

  • No Wind Turbines Following a Community Meeting About the Western Plains Wind Farm Proposal, Held in Stanley on Sunday 11 July 2021
    Responses to questions submitted to Epuron by Respect Stanley Peninsula - No Wind Turbines following a community meeting about the Western Plains Wind Farm proposal, held in Stanley on Sunday 11 July 2021. Response date: 10 August 2021 Questions lodged after the meeting: Question 1 Is the connection asset going to be part of the shared network? (Epuron have stated the underground line will be built, owned and operated by TasNetworks – June 2020 newsletter). A: No, the proposed new underground powerline will be a dedicated line to connect the Western Plains Wind Farm to the Port Latta substation. It is part of the proposal and will not be part of a shared network, although ultimately it is likely to be owned and operated by TasNetworks. Question 2 Has Epuron filed a connections application with TasNetworks? A: Connection studies in preparation for a connection application are well advanced and once these have been completed a connection application will be filed with TasNetworks. Question 3 Is TasNetworks going to pay for the installation of the approx. 25km underground line? If not, who will pay for the installation? A: No. As per response to Q.1 the proposed underground powerline is part of the project and will be paid for by the owner of the project. 1 Question 4 Has TasNetworks committed to delivering the connection asset underground and upgrading the Port Latta substation? (It is our understanding that this would be determined by the Regulatory Investment Test and this would ensure that the connection asset would be delivered at cost that is in the long-term benefits of Tasmanian consumers.

  • Discussion Paper on Renewable Energy Policy in the Planning And
    From: Andrew Lothian To: SA Planning Commission Subject: ACK"D 22/8 - LH to save in KNET - Renewable Energy Policy Date: Thursday, 22 August 2019 11:37:44 AM Attachments: Wind farm report.pdf Discussion Paper on Proposed Changes to Renewable Energy Policy in the Planning and Design Code I have a particular interest in the visual impact of wind farms, having conducted several surveys, using public preferences, of their visual impact, both here in South Australia and interstate. I attach a copy of the report of the 2018 survey which showed a high level of support for wind farms, even in areas of relatively high landscape quality. I note that the Discussion Paper states: “current planning policies do not specifically restrict solar farms from being developed in more environmentally sensitive zones or where landscape character attributes are more prominent and worthy of greater protections.” While this relates to solar farms, it should apply equally to wind farms. The Paper also states: “The Significant Landscape Protection Overlay will identify significant landscapes in which wind farms are discouraged.” South Australia’s coast is an important landscape resource with areas of the high landscape quality including the west coast of Eyre Peninsula, parts of Kangaroo Island and the South East. I conducted research to measure and map the State’s coastal viewscapes for the Coast Protection Board and the report is available at my website: www.scenicsolutions.world/projects There is a real risk that in the future, large scale wind farms will become viable on the west coast of Eyre Peninsula and as this contains some of South Australia’s most outstanding landscapes, this would affect them adversely.
