Wandoan Wind Energy Project Approved
On May 26, 2025, the Queensland government approved the Wandoan Wind Energy Project, marking a significant advancement in the state’s renewable energy initiatives. Developed by Windlab, the project had previously faced delays due to policy shifts and a temporary pause on large-scale renewable developments earlier in the year. The approval follows comprehensive community consultations and aligns with Queensland’s updated planning framework, which emphasizes local engagement and environmental assessments for renewable energy projects.
