Burroway Wind Farm
Burroway Wind Farm & Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is proposed as a wind farm of up to 400 MW and 100 MW BESS with 4 hours of storage, located approximately 25km north-west of Dubbo in regional NSW. The project will connect directly to the existing 132 kV high voltage transmission line that dissects the project site to enable power to be exported into the National Electricity Market. If approved and constructed, the land will remain under agricultural management with sheep and cattle able to graze around the wind turbines. The project is being developed as part of ACE Power’s commitment to help Australia transition to a clean energy future.

Location
The proposed Burroway Wind Farm and BESS project site will be located 25km north-west of Dubbo and 16km north-east of the township of Narromine, within the Narromine Shire Council and Dubbo Regional Council regions. The 6,100 hectare freehold site has been strategically chosen as an existing 132kV transmission line traverses the site, it has a very good wind resource and it is relatively clear of vegetation, limiting environmental impacts. Another benefit is its location within the Central West Orana Renewable Energy Zone, a region identified by the NSW Government for the development of renewable energy projects.
Community Information
We visited Narromine in March and April 2025 to seek feedback from the local community. This included holding community information sessions and door knocking neighbours in the immediate area. We would like to thank neighbours and the wider community for sharing their views. We heard that housing, job creation and aviation activities are important, and we will be incorporating this information into the next phase of our development.
