WinterbourneWind is pleased to be acknowledged by the Clean Energy Council as delivering best practice in community benefit sharing – WinterbourneWind’s VPA with Walcha Council and Uralla Shire Council was highlighted as best practice community benefit sharing in the recently published Best Practice Charter 2025 Summary | Clean Energy Council .
The WinterbourneWind Community Benefit Fund (CBF) will provide $1,000,000 to the CBF when the project achieves financial commitment, and $750,000 annually to the CBF from the start of commercial operations through to project decommissioning (based on a delivered project up to 600 MW capacity). For every megawatt over 600 MW built, we will contribute an extra $1,000 per MW annually to the CBF. The annual payment will be adjusted for inflation according to the Consumer Price Index.
