Field Ecology Surveys

Environmental studies for the proposed wind farm continue to be completed each season. These studies are informing the project’s environmental assessments, including strategies to protect precious species, and natural features such as native grass cover on ridgelines.

Last summer the ecology team went out on site and saw the vulnerable Brown Treecreeper but didn’t see any Blue-winged Parrots or Southern White-face, possible due to generally decreased bird activity in the higher temperatures. The team will soon head out to undertake winter surveys. If you have seen any interesting birds, reach out!

VicGrid’s Renewable Energy Zones

On Friday 29 May VicGrid declared the final five Renewable Energy Zones, which confirmed that the Navarre Green Power Hub is partially situated within the Western Renewable Energy Zone (REZ). This highlights the suitability of our site for a wind farm, reflected in the State’s approach to coordinating renewable energy development. There was a public consultation process which closed on 15 March 2026, and more information on the Zone is available here
Late last year VicGrid also published its draft Victorian Access Regime which is the set of rules for how renewable energy projects can connect into a REZ. More information is here
