Waubra Wind Farm

The Waubra wind farm is located on both sides of the Sunraysia Highway 35 km north-west of Ballarat in Victoria, Australia.

The green energy generated by the wind farm each year provides electricity for 138,000 households enough to power a city 3-4 times the size of Ballarat.

[5] Acciona Energy formed a Community Reference Group (CRG) for the construction phase of the Waubra wind farm, to provide a regular forum for community input to the project and to facilitate communication between members of the Waubra community and the wind farm project team.

[6] In 2010 the anti-wind farm lobby group the Waubra Foundation adopted the name of the nearby town.

A viewing platform designed by Melbourne-based firm JOH Architects[7] is accessible to tourists and located just off the Sunraysia Highway.
