Gullen Range Wind Farm

Gullen Range Wind Farm is an operational wind farm in the Southern Tablelands of NSW, Australia. It is owned by New Gullen Range Wind Farm Pty Ltd (NGRWF). The wind farm consists of 73 turbines and produces 165.5MW of renewable power in ideal wind conditions.

On an average day it produces enough energy to power in excess of 70,000 average homes. By the end of 2022, Gullen Range Wind Farm had saved 3 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional power generation.

Stretching from north to south, the wind farm measures 22km, approximately centred on the locality of Bannister, 11km South of Crookwell and 32km north west of Goulburn.

BJCE Australia is proud to be a founding signatory of the Clean Energy Council’s Best Practice Charter for Renewable Energy Developments. The charter is a voluntary set of commitments to reflect our promise to develop and operate projects in a socially responsible way. The charter can be downloaded here.

News Item: 04/08/2026: Sharing the wonder of renewable energy with Fizzy and Suds 

 

Gullen Range Wind and Solar Farm will soon feature on ABC Kids’ preschool education program Fizzy and Suds, in a new episode exploring how electricity is made. 

The production team visited the site late last year, filming on a clear day to capture life across the wind and solar farm. The footage includes a behind-the-scenes look at the site and follows one of our technicians as they make their way to the top of a wind turbine. 

Fizzy and Suds is designed for preschool-aged children and explores the world through the curious eyes of two animated bubbles. Each episode introduces young viewers to a different topic, from bridges and cows to planets, space and more. 

In the electricity episode, Fizzy and Suds ask how electricity is made and travel to Gullen Range Wind and Solar Farm to learn how renewable energy from the wind and sun helps power homes and everyday appliances. 

The episode premieres on ABC Kids on Wednesday 19 August at 3:40 pm and will also be available to stream on ABC iview.

News Item: 04/05/2026: Gullen Range Wind and Solar Farm honours Anzac Day at Grabben Gullen service

Gullen Range Wind & Solar Farm Site Manager Andrew Sinclair attended the 2026 Anzac Day service in Grabben Gullen, laying a wreath on behalf of the wind and solar farms to honour the service and sacrifice of Australian and New Zealand defence personnel.
The service provided an opportunity for the community to come together in reflection and remembrance. Andrew said it was a privilege to represent the wind and solar farms and to take part in an occasion that holds deep meaning for many local families.
“It’s important we pause to remember the courage and sacrifice of the Anzacs, and to acknowledge the service of today’s defence personnel,” Andrew said. “Laying a wreath on behalf of the wind and solar farms is a small way we can show our respect and support for the communities we’re part of.”
Gullen Range Wind & Solar Farm is proud to support local commemorations and to stand with the surrounding community on Anzac Day.
