First power from MacIntyre Wind Farm exported into national electricity market

3 October 2024

The MacIntyre Wind Farm has connected 27 wind turbines to the energy grid, and throughout October the turbines will be delivering their first renewable power across Queensland and Australia. Energy exports to the grid will progressively ramp up as the site is commissioned.

Today marks a significant milestone for Australia’s diversification of its energy sources with the southern hemisphere’s largest operating wind farm now generating renewable energy.

Over the next 12 months, the remaining turbines at the MacIntyre Wind Frm will be progressively connected, with another batch of 27 turbines planned to be exporting energy by Christmas.
