Ararat wind farm begins production in Victoria

Watt Clarity

As part of the ACT Government’s push towards its “100% Renewables” target, we’ve seen commercial and construction activity underway in various locations across NSW, VIC and SA in recent times.

Today I wanted to flag, by use of our NEM-Review historical analysis package, how Ararat Wind Farm has commenced generation on 19th August.  As highlighted in the following snapshot, it’s output is still understandably small (in relation to the total wind production in the state), but we will watch with interest as it ramps up:
