Denmark Community Windfarm

In November of 2002, Paul and Andrew explored the possibility of a windfarm for Denmark. Similar to the Albany windfarm, Denmark's own would be sized to match the local load, the township of Denmark.

Paul had lived in the area for 14 years and was able to run the idea past others in the community who might be interested. That group evolved into Denmark Community Windfarm Inc, DCW Inc.

We researched the Denmark Shire for a suitable location for a windfarm. Baring in mind the small size of the project compared to other grid connected windfarms around the country, we were after a very high wind site. The case for the Ocean Beach Quarry site can be seen here.

In July, 2003 SkyFarming put up a monitoring mast, right, to confirm the wind resource and the results have been very encouraging.

We have been working with the DCW Inc to gain developmental approval and with Western Power Networks to gain connection and access to the grid.

The activities and events both SkyFarming and DCW Inc have been involved in were outlined on this website. These details and material about the project are now on the website below, www.dcw.org.au.
