ENGIE’s Canunda Wind Farm Set to Extend Operations Until 2035
The construction of the Canunda Wind Farm was one of ENGIE's first steps on their journey towards net zero by 2045.
The construction of the Canunda Wind Farm was one of ENGIE's first steps on their journey towards net zero by 2045.
Commissioned in March 2005, Canunda Wind Farm has been a cornerstone of renewable energy for nearly two decades. Located just south of Millicent in South Australia, it boasts a high wind yield, producing electricity 34% of the time—an impressive figure by global standards.
A key question arises: after twenty years, how much longer can the wind farm continue to operate? The good news is that a recent end-of-life/life extension assessment has determined that Canunda’s design life can be extended by another 10 years, pushing its operational lifespan to 2035.
This extension means ten more years of clean energy for South Australia’s grid and continued contributions to ENGIE’s renewable energy goals.
