Community 

We engage with community through public meetings and also by way of information drop-in sessions, with a focus on the townships of Balranald, Hay and Moulamein, located in southwest New South Wales.

We thank the local businesses that support and enable us to share our information with locals, most recently including: the Moulamein Art Gallery, Harrison & Sons IGA, Hay and the Balranald Discovery Centre. All three organisations have generously hosted our drop-in sessions, which allows for residents to provide input ‘first hand’ to our project team.

We also support community through benefits such as sponsorships and in-kind donations.
In 2025 our sponsorships included the Moulamein Football Netball Club (MFNC), fondly known as the Mighty Swans.

To learn more about the project and the outcome of our specialist assessments, reach out to us via the project’s community hotline.

Further updates and information will feature on this project website, and presented at our engagement sessions – as we progress with the Baldon Wind Farm project.

Local Economic Benefits

The project will be able to bring significant investment into the local area, particularly during construction of the wind farm. Economic benefits include training initiatives, job creation, opportunities for local business through our supply chain needs and value add benefits. When the project becomes operational, benefits will continue long-term employment for local people, ongoing operations and maintenance contracts, support for social benefit projects as well as community benefit sharing initiatives.

Community Consultative Committee 

A Community Consultative Committee (CCC) will be established prior to the start of construction to keep the community involved on the progress of the project. The purpose of the CCC is to provide a forum for open discussion between representatives of the project, the community, councils and other stakeholders. It will also assist in the direction of where community benefits will be distributed during the life of the project.
