Creating employment and local business opportunities
The Bullawah Wind Farm will invest in the Riverina, providing funding, job creation, and long-term benefits to local communities.
Supplier and employment opportunities
BayWa r.e. is committed to creating jobs for local people and engaging with local businesses and suppliers. This project will be delivered with a broad range of skills and businesses.
Construction contractors will lead project delivery. In the lead-up to construction, BayWa r.e. will work closely with lead contractors to ensure that local businesses, including First Nations businesses, are given the opportunity to be involved.
The Bullawah Wind Farm is expected to generate up to 400 jobs during construction- both on the site and in the wider community. Once operational, the project will need around 10 local workers and will lead to other flow-on jobs and economic benefits in the region.
If you are a local business in the Riverina or surrounds, we would like to hear from you. Be it earthworks, fencing, professional services, infrastructure, building contractors, machinery operators, or accommodation, medical, catering, road transport or cleaners – all these skills will be needed during construction.
Training and development opportunities
BayWa r.e. is committed to delivering targeted education and training opportunities through delivery of this project. This will include partnering with local education and training providers to fund targeted courses that help address Australia’s clean energy workforce shortages.
We will continue to update this website as training and development opportunities become available.
Supporting the local supply chain
Projects of this scale can boost local supply chains in regional Australia. The Bullawah Wind Farm team has engaged extensively with local manufacturers and businesses to scope early opportunities to build the local supply chain.
We will continue to update this website as local supply chain support opportunities become available.
Supporting innovation
Australia’s once in a generation energy transition can support onshore innovation. By partnering with Australian universities and start-up accelerators, the Bullawah Wind Farm will support a step change in Australia’s innovation potential. BayWa r.e. has made significant commitments to supporting innovation and will work with trusted local partners to deliver it.
We will continue to update this website as innovation partnership opportunities become available.
