Kennedy Energy Park is a proposed wind, solar and storage hybrid power station to be located approx 20 km south east of Hughenden and 290 km southwest of Townsville in Queensland.
Stage one of the project is a “proof-of-concept” expected to commence construction early 2017, consisting of 30 MW of wind turbines, 20 MW of single axis tracking Solar Panels, and 2 MW of Li ion battery storage, costing $120 million to build and expected to be operational early in 2018.
Stage two is expected to be capable of producing 1200 MW of renewable energy, costing $2 Billion and hoped to commence construction before the end of the decade.
