Argoon Wind Farm will be located approximately 20km north of Jerilderie and 30km southwest of Coleambally, situated within the NSW South-West Renewable Energy Zone (REZ).
Following initial feasibility assessments in 2022, RES has been progressing the development of the Argoon Wind Farm which, once completed, has the potential to generate enough renewable energy to power up to 430,000 NSW homes per year.
Aula Energy was established by Macquarie Asset Management in 2023 as an Australian-headquartered renewable energy business to originate, develop, construct and operate renewable projects.
The partnership between Aula Energy and RES builds on the effective collaboration demonstrated during the development of the Murra Warra Wind Farm projects in Victoria, where RES and Macquarie’s expertise and commitment resulted in a successful large-scale wind energy solution, completed in 2022.
Aula Energy CEO Chad Hymas said, “We are thrilled to deepen our partnership with RES through our investment in the Argoon Wind Farm.
