As Australia’s leading renewable energy provider, Squadron Energy sees what works in supporting regional communities to engage with the development of renewable projects. Constructive conversations are key
Bellhaven, the former aged care facility, has opened its doors to workers working on Squadron Energy’s Uungula Wind Farm.
Squadron Energy has the facility turned into a temporary workers accommodation following an extensive refurbishment by local First Nations contractors.
The upgrade to the Goolma Road and Twelve Mile Road intersection has been completed, creating a widened and improved intersection for communities in the Central West.
Squadron Energy upgraded the intersection as part of work for Uungula Wind Farm.
Aurora Wind, in partnership with Squadron Energy, is calling for expressions of interest for a Global Wind Organisation (GWO) Basic Safety Training program.
Central West-Orana residents with a trade background are encouraged to apply.
The course is designed to prepare participants for work in the wind industry.
Squadron Energy CEO Rob Wheals writes that gas terminals, like Port Kembla Energy Terminal, should be treated as friend, not foe, as they provide a practical, efficient way to break distribution bottlenecks, increase competition and reduce the likelihood of price spikes and emergency intervention.
Applications are open for Squadron Energy’s Clarke Creek Wind Farm Community Benefit Fund for 2026.
The fund supports community projects and initiatives within 50km of the 450-megawatt wind farm.
There is a total annual commitment of $200,000.
The Australian Government has announced a gas reservation scheme that will require gas exporters to reserve a portion of gas for domestic use.
Squadron Energy has acknowledged this scheme, which aims to put downward pressure on prices, and maintains that the Port Kembla Energy Terminal (PKET) is key to the policy’s success as the terminal ensures gas can get to where it is needed most.
A major milestone has been reached for Squadron Energy’s Clarke Creek Wind Farm after the project secured landmark financing. The financing was arranged with a bank group of 10 capital partners. Stage one of Clarke Creek is operational with 100 turbines generating 450MW—enough to power 330,000 homes and cut 738,000 tonnes of emissions annually.
Squadron Energy has appointed Reganosa Servicios to operate and maintain Port Kembla Energy Terminal’s onshore facilities. The five-year partnership will create regional jobs and strengthen gas supply on Australia’s east coast.
