  • Wind Energy in NSW: Myths and Facts
    Wind Energy in NSW: Myths and Facts 1 INTRODUCTION Wind farms produce clean energy, generate jobs and income in regional areas and have minimal environmental impacts if appropriately located. Wind farms are now increasingly commonplace and accepted by communities in many parts of the world, but they are quite new to NSW. To increase community understanding and involvement in renewable energy, the NSW Government has established six Renewable Energy Precincts in areas of NSW with the best known wind resources. As part of the Renewable Energy Precincts initiative, the NSW Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water (DECCW) has compiled the following information to increase community understanding about wind energy. The technical information has been reviewed by the Centre for Environmental and Energy Markets, University of NSW. The Wind Energy Fact Sheet is a shorter and less technical brochure based on the Wind Energy in NSW: Myths and Facts. The brochure is available for download at www.environment.nsw.gov.au/resources/climatechange/10923windfacts.pdf. For further renewable energy information resources, please visit the Renewable Energy Precincts Resources webpage at http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/climatechange/reprecinctresources.htm. 2 CONTENTS CONTENTS ...............................................................................................................3 WIND FARM NOISE ..................................................................................................4 WIND TURBINES AND SHADOW FLICKER...........................................................11

Duponts has made this assessment based on a review of literature on the matter, information of the development gained from the proponent, an informal inspection of the local area, our knowledge of land values in the Scone region and our knowledge of the impact developments of this nature have on land values. BACKGROUND EXISTING WIND FARMS IN NSW There are currently four wind farms operating in NSW including Blayney Wind Farm, Crookwell Wind Farm, Hampton Wind Park and Kooragang Island. In total they generate enough electricity to supply power to approximately 6,000 homes annually. Kooragang Island Crookwell Wind Farm Blayney Wind Farm Hampton Wind Park In 1997 Energy Australia installed 1 wind turbine on Kooragang Island, on the northern side of Newcastle harbour. The wind turbine provides 600kW of energy to Energy Australia’s Pure Energy customers. Crookwell Wind farm has 8 wind turbines located in the southern tablelands of NSW. Opened in 1998 it was the first grid-connected wind farm in Australia. The wind farm has a total capacity of 4.8 MW. The wind farm is currently owned by Eraring Energy.

  • Flyers Creek Wind Farm Pty Ltd
    VOLUME I Flyers Creek Wind Farm Pty Ltd Flyers CreekWIND FARM Environmental Assessment Environmental CHAPTER 1 Introduction 1. Introduction 1.1 Background This Environmental Assessment has been prepared by Aurecon on behalf of the proponent, Flyers Creek Wind Farm Pty Ltd, for the proposed development of a wind farm and associated ancillary infrastructure. The Environmental Assessment supports a Project Application lodged by proponent under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act, 1979 (EP&A Act). The project site is located in the Central Western Region of New South Wales (NSW) approximately 20 kilometres south of Orange and 200 kilometres west of Sydney, NSW (Figures 1.1 and 1.2). A project application based on an initial conceptual project layout was lodged with the NSW Department of Planning on 15 December 2008. Subsequently on 19 January 2009, the Director- General of the Department of Planning prescribed specific requirements for the scope and content of the Environmental Assessment (Appendix A). On the 11 November 2009, the NSW Minister for Planning declared the proposed Flyers Creek Wind Farm to be a ‘Critical Infrastructure’ project (under Section 75C of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act, 1979) (Appendix B) being a project that is essential for the State and economic reasons and for social and environmental reasons. This Environmental Assessment based on the updated project design addresses the Director- General’s requirements and provides a description of the currently proposed project, the existing environment and planning context, an assessment of the potential environmental impacts of the project, the measures proposed to mitigate those impacts, justification of the project and the consultation undertaken and proposed in the future for the project.

Attached is a copy of the presentation and speeches being presented at AGL’s Investor Day today, which provides an update on the review of AGL’s business model and capital structure. AGL Managing Director and CEO, Brett Redman, said that the proposed separation builds on AGL’s heritage of innovation, investment and structural adaptation to meet the needs of a dynamic industry. “For more than 180 years, AGL has led Australia’s energy sector, evolving and innovating to better serve our customers and communities, and to return value to shareholders,” Mr Redman said. “The accelerating market forces of customer, community and technology are driving the imperative to create this new path and separate AGL into two distinct organisations. “The proposed structural separation would give each business the freedom, focus and clarity to execute their own respective strategies and growth agendas, while playing an equally important, but different, role in Australia’s energy transition. Mr Redman said New AGL would be Australia’s largest multi-product energy retailer by number of services to customers, leading the transition to a low carbon future.
