Senvion has received Notice to Proceed for the first stage of the 429MW Murra Warra wind farm near Horsham in Western Victoria, Australia. All conditions precedent have been fulfilled and the contract is now firm and in force. This announcement follows the signing of a Delivery Partnership Agreement for the project in June last year.
The first stage of the wind farm will have 61 of Senvion's 3.7M144 turbines with a total generating capacity of 226MW. A consortium of large energy users led by Telstra has entered into long-term power purchase agreements which will cover the energy generated from the first stage of the wind farm. Early works for the Murra Warra Wind Farm have already begun and the project is expected to be fully operational by mid-2019.
