Hepburn Wind Project

Hepburn Wind Project formally launched their share offer on 25 July 2008, and as of June 2011 over 1700 members had subscribed a total of $9.0 million.

As the project is under 30 MW, it was assessed under the local planning guidelines administered through the Hepburn Shire Council.

The wind farm began generating power into the local electricity network on Wednesday, 22 June 2011.

The director of the Hepburn Wind Project, Taryn Lane, recently was awarded "Outstanding Woman of Victoria: Trailblazer".
