Ben Bullen Wind Farm
(date posted: 11 April 2024)

Using its renewable energy technical expertise and project development experience, Tetris Energy has identified the Ben Bullen location based on its strong wind resource, access to existing high-voltage transmission lines, and proximity to major retiring coal-fired power stations.

Located ~12km north of Portland and ~18km from Wallerawang, the site is in the Lithgow City Council with the previously cleared land predominantly used for cattle and sheep grazing. Tetris Energy acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of this land, the Wiradjuri, Gundungurra, and Darug people.

The project is in a major current Energy Generation Zone, located near the former Wallerawang and current Mt Piper Power Stations and the coal mines that supply these. Developing the high-quality wind resource at the site would diversify the local economy and generate significant investment in the broader Lithgow area in a way that is compatible with existing agricultural activities.
