Union Fenosa Wind Australia (UFWA) is undertaking the preliminary stages of a wind farm development in Tarrone, Victoria. This newsletter outlines the details of an upcoming door knock in the local area as an important part of the community engagement strategy for the proposed Tarrone Wind Farm.

UFWA is part of an international energy group called gasNatural fenosa that is a leading vertically integrated gas and electricity group that has a presence in 23 countries and employs over 20,000 staff with 17,000 MW of installed electricity generation and has more than 20 million customers. It has a long history of successful renewable energy projects around the world, building more than 2,000 MW of green energy capacity across wind, solar, hydro, biomass and other renewable energy sources.

UFWA has eight wind farm projects across NSW & Victoria. This portfolio represents an investment of approximately $2 billion in renewable wind generation. Once complete, the portfolio will increase Australia’s present wind generation capacity by over 1,000 MW. In addition, the portfolio will result in the creation of several hundred jobs in the construction and operational phases.
