Equis is seeking approval from the federal government to build a significant wind farm and battery project in northern Tasmania to support the state’s green hydrogen plans. The proposed Bell Bay wind farm, located within the Northeast Tasmanian Renewable Energy Zone near George Town, will feature 28 eight-megawatt wind turbines, making it one of the most powerful installations in Australia. The project is strategically positioned to contribute to Tasmania's excellent wind resources and industrial history in energy generation. The wind farm will also be equipped with a 100MW big battery for up to four hours of energy storage. This development aligns with federal Labor's investment in the Bell Bay Hydrogen Hub, which aims to produce 45,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually by 2028. The project is part of Equis Development's broader portfolio, including multiple wind and battery projects across Australia. If approved, the wind farm and battery project is expected to generate around 800 jobs during construction, supporting local economic growth. Equis anticipates gaining all necessary approvals by 2026 and commencing operations by 2029, emphasizing a commitment to sustainable energy development.
