A $200 million wind farm in the Mid North will create 170 construction jobs. New Zealand power generator, TrustPower, has been granted a licence by the Essential Services Commission of South Australia.
Construction on the 42 wind turbines at Snowtown begins in April. The system is expected to supply enough power for 60,000 homes. TrustPower chief executive Keith Tempest said the site was one of the best in Australia.
SA electricity transmission company ElectraNet would construct the high voltage substation and short transmission line to connect the wind farm to the state grid, with construction scheduled to begin in April.
