Windlab is developing the North Queensland Super Hub—a landmark renewable energy precinct designed to power Queensland’s low-carbon future while supporting regional communities.
Located on the traditional lands of the Yirendali People, the Super Hub will play a critical role in reducing carbon emissions, with an expected abatement of 22 million tonnes of carbon annually.
Comprising multiple co-located but individually permitted renewable energy projects, the most progressed developments within the Super Hub are the Prairie and Wongalee wind farms, with additional projects in the early stages of planning.
North Queensland is home to some of the most consistent and powerful renewable energy resources in Australia. The Super Hub harnesses the region’s natural energy patterns, leveraging world-class wind resources that complement the abundant solar energy available across the state. The inverse correlation between the two generation sources ensures a reliable and steady supply of power, balancing emerging production and demand throughout the day and across seasons.
The North Queensland Super Hub is being developed on pastoral land around Hughenden in partnership with landowners, Traditional Owners, community members and other stakeholders.
The region is home to a high-yield, complimentary wind and solar resource and is ideally suited for multiple offtake opportunities. Renewable energy projects are also highly compatible with the existing use of the land as grazing country for livestock.
Our unrivalled track record, coupled with our decade-long presence in the Hughenden region and deep commitment to supporting better overall outcomes for local people, places and the planet ensures we’re uniquely placed to unlock this transformational opportunity and deliver lasting benefits we can all share.
For 20 years, we've used our world-leading science and expertise to find, develop, and deliver the best performing clean energy projects on the planet.
We engage locals and respect the needs and wishes of communities, and take pride in driving positive socioeconomic outcomes for regional Australia.
