TasNetworks and Goldwind have signed the Connection Agreement for the Cattle Hill wind farm project in Tasmania’s central highlands.
The Connection Agreement sets out the terms and conditions through which the wind farm is able to successfully connect to TasNetworks’ transmission network and is another step in paving the way for the construction of the 144MW wind farm. The construction of the wind farm, consisting of up to 49 turbines, is scheduled to commence in early 2018 and is expected to create 150 jobs during construction and employ up to 10 permanent maintenance staff when fully operational in 2019.
