## Tesla and Vestas Wind Partner in $160 Million Australian Project says Bloomberg Markets

First off, what a novel $160 million and so cool renewable energy project. Furthermore,
I mean combining wind, solar and storage technologies with Vestas Wind Systems A/
S. Well a deal reached financial close. So, Tesla will supply batteries. Vestas 
Wind Systems A/S will supply turbines. It seems that’s for the first phase of the
Kennedy Energy Park. The project co-developer is WindLab Ltd.

. Also, the project in Queensland Australia. In addition, it’s financed by the [Clean Energy](https://greenlivingguy.com/2013/07/urban-atlantic-announces-the-completion-of-the-first-u-s-property-assessed-clean-energy-pace-financing-for-affordable-multifamily-housing/)
Finance Corp. [Plus and also Australian Renewable Energy](https://greenlivingguy.com/2019/01/tesla-solar-energy-power-installed-new-roof/)
Agency is financing the project too.

## Conclusion

In conclusion, the 60.2 megawatt development will be the first. It’ll thereby [connect the three renewable power](https://greenlivingguy.com/2012/07/ev-connect-connects-great-escapes-wind-turbines-powering-new-ev-charge-stations/)
technologies to the Australian grid. Through a single connection point folks. Most
importantly, it gets completed end of 2018. The [combination will help provide](https://greenlivingguy.com/2011/05/innovative-retail-electricity-provider-combines-new-product-with-evgosm-to-drive-ev-adoption-in-texas/)
reliable supplies of electricity. Finally it’ll be overcoming one of the biggest
downsides. Therefore, we are talking intermittent [renewable energy generation](https://greenlivingguy.com/2021/03/tips-for-buying-the-right-camping-generator/)
technologies.

I also wrote that [Vestas](https://greenlivingguy.com/2013/01/vestas-90-mw-purchase-agreement/)
Wind did the Talinay Oriente.  For it is also in the [Coquimbo](https://www.enel.cl/en/meet-enel/chiles-energy-is-transforming/talinay-oriente-wind-farm.html)
region. Furthermore, the project has been and is operational since 2013. The [plant also has 45 wind turbines](https://greenlivingguy.com/2022/05/industry-experts-provide-perspective-of-expected-future-wind-plant-design/)
of 2 MW each. Most [importantly and all for a total installed](https://greenlivingguy.com/2022/08/charge-ev-home-4-things-to-know-about-installing/)
capacity of approximately 90 MW.

It can also generate up to 20 GWh per year, a significant contribution to sustainable
energy production. For this reason, it plays a crucial role in avoiding the emissions
of more than 165,000 tons of CO2 annually, which is equivalent to the greenhouse
gas emissions produced by thousands of vehicles on the road. By harnessing renewable
energy resources efficiently, this initiative not only supports the environment 
but also aids in the transition towards a cleaner, more sustainable future for our
planet.
