Contact Energy is developing a pipeline of wind generation opportunities to meet Aotearoa New Zealand’s growing demand for renewable electricity.
Our first proposed site is located on Slopedown Hill in eastern Southland, approximately 25km south of Gore and 15km east of Wyndham.
Southland Wind Farm is proposed to consist of up to 55 wind turbines, each up to approximately 7MW in capacity with a tip height of 220m. The wind farm is expected to generate approximately 1,200 GWh per year, enough power to supply 150,000 households and providing a significant contribution to the energy supply in Southland.
