The Rye Park Wind Farm is an approved development north of Yass and east of Boorowa, near the township of Rye Park.
Located on a long ridgeline running north-south at right angles to the prevailing wind direction, it provides a reliable source of wind. The site has been selected for its exposed windy ridges, grazing land and proximity to the national electricity grid.
The project area spans the Hilltops, Upper Lachlan and Yass Valley local government areas, located 11 km north-east of Yass on predominately stock farming land.
The wind farm will connect to the National Electricity Market via TransGrid’s 330kV Yass to Gullen Range Line via a new 330kV connection substation.
