Someva Renewables & AGL Energy- Pottinger Park
The proposed Pottinger Energy Park project, which is being developed by Someva Renewables and AGL Energy, is located approximately 60km south of Hay and 75km north of Deniliquin in NSW’s historic Western Riverina region.
The project is also located within NSW’s South West Renewable Energy Zone (SW REZ) and as of 23 April 2024 has been awarded an Access Right to the SW REZ by The Energy Corporation of NSW (EnergyCo).
Under the Access Right, Pottinger Energy Park is proposed to be up to 831 megawatts (MW) of wind (approximately 115 turbines) which is expected to provide electricity to power the equivalent of the annual needs of over 510,000 average NSW households. This will be supported by a 400 MW / 1,600 megawatt hour (MWh) grid-scale battery, and along with the wind farm be connected to the Project Energy Connect transmission network.
The proposed project plans to create up to 550 jobs at peak construction and 35 ongoing roles throughout its operational life.
