Bango Wind Farm
Bango Wind Farm is a wind farm in the Australian state of New South Wales. It was developed by CWP Renewables between the towns of Yass and Boorowa. Construction began in August 2019 and became fully operational in 2023.
The wind farm consists of 46 wind turbines. They are GE turbines which generate up to 5.3 MW each, for a total rated capacity of 244 MW. The wind farm has an offtake agreement with Snowy Hydro for 100MW of its generation. It has another agreement to supply electricity to Woolworths to supply over 100 supermarkets.
The tower for each wind turbine is 120.9 metres (397 feet) high. It is delivered and constructed in five sections. It has both a ladder and a lift from the entrance door to the nacelle.
