Wind Prospect values transparent and community-focused engagement. We understand that local communities play an essential role in shaping projects, and it’s crucial to ensure people have a voice in the process. Our approach is to provide clear and timely information and meaningful opportunities for feedback.

We recognise the importance of building meaningful, lasting relationships with the communities where we develop our projects. We aim to be positive and responsible participants through respectful engagement and open dialogue.

We are working closely with landowners, neighbours, local councils and community groups to understand the region’s interests, concerns, and aspirations. Throughout the Project’s development, we will provide regular updates, hold community information sessions and offer various channels for feedback.

Community and stakeholder engagement opportunities

Since announcing the proposed Project in April 2025, Wind Prospect has been engaging with community members, landholders and stakeholders to help inform the preparation of this Scoping Report.

Engagement has included community meetings, drop-in information sessions, one-on-one discussions, targeted briefings, newsletters and updates via the project website. Feedback received continues to inform project planning and assessment.

We’re committed to open and ongoing communication and look forward to continuing the conversation with the community as the Project progresses.
