Across Australia LINX Port Services is playing a key role in supporting a growing number of #renewable #energy projects – including this one in Geelong – providing safe and skilled stevedoring services to tackle these large-scale and delicate tasks.
500,000 tonnes and counting! GeelongPort has marked 500,000 tonnes of Vestas equipment for TagEnergy's Golden Plains Wind Farm. With another vessel at GeelongPort this week, the volume of components expertly transported to Rokewood near Geelong will continue to grow. GeelongPort’s GM Commercial Elias Anastasiou said the port was thrilled to mark the 500,000th tonne of wind turbine equipment bound for stage one of the Golden Plains Wind Farm. “Over the past six months, we have seen experts across the entire supply chain working together to deliver the components to Rokewood and bring us another step closer to generating more clean energy for Victoria,” he said. “Each blade is half the length of the MCG, so it’s no easy feat to move them safely and efficiently.” The project is also moving ahead on site in Rokewood, with the first turbine for stage one successfully installed in February. During the first stage of the project, GeelongPort will receive 1,464 components on 21 individual shipments.
