Twenty-eight turbines at the Sapphire 1 wind farm in regional NSW are now feeding renewable electricity into the national grid as part of the ACT’s 100% renewable electricity target, Minister for Climate Change and Sustainability Shane Rattenbury said today.
“Today is a fantastic milestone in the ACT’s transition to 100% renewable electricity. The ACT-supported part of Sapphire wind farm will power around 48,000 ACT homes – contributing about 12% towards our renewable electricity target,” Mr Rattenbury said.
