Green Wind Renewables has announced the launch of the Mahogany Wind Farm, a large-scale wind project located between the Shires of Coorow and Dandaragan in the agricultural Wheatbelt region of Western Australia. The facility, which could host up to 75 turbines, is targeting a production capacity of 450 megawatts (MW), equivalent to supplying 250,000 households.

A production capacity targeted at 1.5 TWh per year

According to projections released by the company, the wind farm is expected to generate more than 1.5 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity annually. The site, located about 40 kilometres south of Eneabba and 40 kilometres east of Jurien Bay, benefits from wind conditions identified as among the most consistent in Western Australia.

The project is part of a regional effort to strengthen renewable electricity generation capacity, as the state continues its energy diversification goals. Preliminary feasibility studies have been completed, and initial engagement with landowners and local communities is under way.

Local consultation and regional economic impacts

Green Wind Renewables’ development and community engagement teams have begun discussions with local stakeholders, including landowners, neighbours and traditional indigenous groups. The company plans to maintain active dialogue throughout the project’s progression.

Beyond energy generation, the project represents a significant investment in the local economy. It is expected to create direct jobs during the construction phase and support regional economic activity through partnerships with local businesses.

Progressive deployment with no fixed timeline

Although a detailed project timeline has not yet been communicated, Green Wind Renewables has stated that development will take place in close collaboration with local stakeholders. The company emphasises its commitment to ensuring ongoing transparency throughout the process.

The Mahogany Wind Farm site, with its identified strategic wind resources, reinforces the Wheatbelt’s attractiveness for future large-scale energy projects.
