GE Vernova to Supply Wind Turbines in South Australia

In a recent development, GE Vernova has inked an agreement to go ahead and supply wind turbines for the 256-megawatt Hill wind farm from Carmody in South Australia, expanding its collaboration with Aula Energy, the renewable energy developer.

As per the deal, GE Vernova is going to offer 42 onshore wind turbines, each having a capacity of 6.1 megawatts and also a hub height of 158 metres. The agreement also goes on to cover turbine installation along with a five-year full-service operation as well as a maintenance contract, confirmed the company.

The order to supply wind turbines for the farm, apparently was booked in Q4 of 2025 and follows a past contract between both the companies when it comes to the Boulder Creek Wind Farm in Queensland from Aula Energy, as per GE Vernova.

Carmody’s Hill wind farm is situated around 7 kilometers east of Georgetown in the Mid-North region of South Australia. The grid approval when it comes to the project was secured almost nine months post the application was submitted.

The chief commercial officer with onshore wind business in international markets for GE Vernova, Gilan Sabatier, remarked that they are indeed delighted to go ahead and build on their successful collaboration with Aula Energy in order to bring yet another high-quality wind project to Australia.

According to Sabatier, the deployment of the 6-megawatt-class turbine platform of the company at scale can indeed enable simplifying contracting, accelerate the grid approvals, and enhance dependability throughout the wind fleets.

Chad Hymas, chief executive of Aula Energy, said that the company indeed went ahead and welcomed this renewed partnership. He added that they are pleased to be collaborating yet again with GE Vernova in order to roll out Carmody’s Hill Wind Farm.

As per GE Vernova, its 6-megawatt-class platform has gone on to contribute to shorter contract negotiations as well as faster grid approval processes throughout many Australian states.
