Strzelecki Community Alliance Inc.
Strzelecki Community Alliance Inc. (SCA) is a community group united to fight the inappropriate deployment of renewable energy technologies in a unique part of Gippsland (Victoria, Australia). The proposed Delburn Wind Farm is sighted in a well-recognised bushfire prone area, with approximately 5865 residents living 5km from any one turbine. The 35 x 250m high wind farm proposal fails to conform to the National Wind Farm Commissioner’s recommendations. The threat to lifestyles, health, rights and financial security means we will fight for those most impacted.
Will the Strzelecki Koala be ok?
Up to 42 Ha of remnant native vegetation is threatened by bulldozers during construction of the Delburn Wind Farm.
Worried about the koalas? Their very habitat is earmarked for removal.
Social licence?
The neighbours of the proposed wind farm were the last to know.
NO neighbours were consulted before this proposal was announced.
Are you one of them?
Community financial benefits?
HVP, a US owned company, gets 56% of the community benefits. HVP profits. Neighbours bear the costs.
No neighbour was consulted.
