The power behind Victoria’s clean energy future.
The Watta Wella Renewable Energy Project includes a wind farm and Battery Energy Storage Project (BESS).
Watta Wella will generate enough clean energy to power up to 200,000 homes, deliver local benefits and community funding, and create over 200 jobs in Victoria.
Located approximately 16km north east of Stawell in the Wimmera region of Victoria on Wotjobaluk Country, the Project will feature a 400 MW wind farm with 45 turbines, and a 1600 MWh BESS, injecting over $600 million into the Victorian economy.
The Watta Wella Renewable Energy Project is committed to a robust community benefits programme, and a dedicated Community Consultative Committee to guide local engagement and legacy initiatives.

A Greener Future
The Watta Wella Renewable Energy Project is committed to preserving the environment and minimising potential impacts throughout the Project's lifespan. By replacing electricity generated from other sources such as fossil fuel power stations, renewable energy can lead to an overall reduction in Victoria’s carbon emissions.
Powering more than
200,000 homes each year
Contributing to the Victorian Government’s targets of net zero emissions by 2050.
Minimal impact on
traditional farming
With a footprint of less than 2% of the site area, the Project allows for the continuation of farming activities.
Utilising existing access tracks and road reserves
Prioritising the use of previously cleared areas and access tracks to reduce the total project disturbance footprint.
Offsetting 1M+ tonnes
of CO2
That’s the equivalent of over 16 million tree seedlings growing for 10 years.
Clean Energy Council’s Best Practice Charter
We’re proud to be a signatory to the Australian Clean Energy Council’s Best Practice Charter for Renewable Energy Projects. The Charter is a voluntary commitment to respectful, transparent, and responsible clean energy development.
It outlines 10 key commitments that guide how we engage with communities, protect cultural and environmental values, and deliver lasting benefits to the regions where we operate.
