Community fund and engagement

Moyne Shire Council establishes Advisory Committees to help in the consultative process and to provide valuable information to support the decision making of the Council. The Community Engagement Committee (an Advisory committee) for the Dundonnell Wind Farm is made up of Council and community representatives.

More information about the Committee, its members and the minutes can be found on Council's website, here.

Tilt Renewables is committed to open and honest dialogue with all stakeholders, with an aim to build and enhance community acceptance and trust in all projects and in the renewable energy industry as a whole. During construction we opened a project information centre at 97 Dunlop Street, Mortlake and provided weekly to fortnightly construction updates. While these have now ceased, we continue to distribute a bi-monthly newsletter. You can access these (and subscribe to our email distribution) in the News and Updates section below.

Your feedback is welcome, so if you have any concerns or believe you can provide local insight into matters which we should address as we enter the operations phase of the project, please get in touch.

As a long-term good corporate citizen, Tilt Renewables is committed to sharing and enhancing its host communities by offering community benefits for all of its projects, including the Dundonnell Wind Farm.

Tilt Renewables consulted with the local community to determine a range of benefit sharing programs which address key social, economic and environmental needs in the region. Programs include a range of training and skills development programs, the installation of a mini-grid, a road safety fund, support for local not for profit organisations and mental health providers, as well as a community fund and education funding for residents.

The DDWF Community Fund and the DDWF Education Fund will operate for the life of the wind farm and are administered by a community-led group.
