A NEW $66 million wind farm has been approved for the state's southwest. The 21-turbine farm at Naroghid, 7km south of Camperdown, will be built on grazing land leased from farmers. Victoria's eighth wind farm should generate enough capacity to power 25,000 homes a year. Planning Minister Rob Hulls said the permit, granted to Wind Farm Developments, had been approved by an independent panel.

Each turbine will be 125m tall and they will be spaced about 300m apart.
