Palmer Wind Farm – Construction
Construction timing
The Palmer Wind Farm will start construction in 2026.
Tilt Renewables is constructing the Palmer Wind Farm with the following delivery partners:
- Turbine Supply and Install: Vestas
- Electrical and Civil Balance of Plant (including road upgrade works): BMD
- Grid Connection: ElectraNet
Pre-works and site preparation
In the lead up to construction starting mid 2026, our contractor BMD will be doing pre-works and site preparation over the coming months. The majority of this work will occur within the project site, but there will be some surveying on Randell Road.
These investigations are very similar to those that have been occurring over the last few years during project development. We don’t expect the community to experience any changes, but there might be some additional vehicles in the area.
If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to palmerwindfarm@tiltrenewables.com or 1800 WE TILT (938 458).
Community engagement
We are hosting engagement in February 2026 to share construction plans and work through challenges and opportunities with the community. There will also be a ‘meet the contractor’ event where local businesses can meet our lead contractor BMD.
You can view dates and rsvp here.
Community Consultative Committee
For construction Tilt Renewables is setting up a Community Consultative Committee (CCC).
The aim of the CCC is to facilitate two-way communication between the community and the Project team during the construction phase. The CCC will provide a forum for community members to raise issues, share local knowledge and provide feedback to Tilt Renewables and the Balance of Plant (BOP) Contractor (BMD).
The CCC Draft Terms of Reference can be read here: Palmer Wind Farm – Draft CCC Terms of Reference
To give your feedback on the Draft Terms of Reference and sign up to be notified when Expressions of Interest are open for the CCC, please complete the survey here: CCC Draft Terms of Reference Survey
