Kiata Wind Farm project site

Overview

Kiata Wind Farm sits just north-west of Horsham, harnessing the reliable winds of Victoria's Wimmera region to generate clean energy. With nine turbines standing tall near Nhill, the site has been producing renewable electricity since early 2018 and is fully connected to the local distribution network. The project is owned and operated by Atmos Renewables, and its presence is a visible marker of the region's shift towards sustainable energy.

Beyond energy generation, Kiata Wind Farm has become a valued part of the local community. Each year, the site runs a Community Grants Program, offering funding to support projects that benefit residents nearby. From upgrades at local halls and sporting clubs to heritage initiatives and equipment for emergency services, the wind farm's annual grant pool is put to work across the Hindmarsh Shire.
