Supporting wind farm development in Australia

Supporting wind farm development in Australia

Australia is one of the windiest continents on earth - wind energy is central to the renewable energy transition.

Wind farms are often located in remote or constrained environments, requiring careful planning around access, ground conditions, transport routes, community consultation and approvals. Developers and contractors need collaborators who understand these realities and can help navigate them practically.

pitt&sherry provides engineering and environmental services across key stages of the wind farm project lifecycle, from early feasibility and approvals through to transport route design, site civil works, foundation engineering, flood studies and construction phase support.

Our knowledge and experience can help solve your engineering challenges and help develop practical wind farm infrastructure solutions for your site conditions.

Our approach

How we support wind energy projects

Practical design for remote environments

Practical design for remote environments

Our teams have extensive experience designing supporting infrastructure for projects in remote and challenging locations in Australia. From access track alignments and intersection upgrades to camp facilities and temporary works, our designs consider site constraints, environmental factors and constructability. We work collaboratively with principals and construction teams on solutions that seek to balance engineering requirements with on-ground delivery challenges.
Our industry credentials

Supporting projects within regulatory frameworks

We work with Australian planning, environmental and transport frameworks to support well-considered wind farm planning, design and delivery.

Planning and environmental frameworks

Planning and environmental frameworks

We support wind farm approvals under relevant state-based planning systems. Our planners and environmental team work closely with other specialists and authorities to support alignment of engineering outcomes with approval conditions.

Road and transport authority requirements

Road and transport authority requirements

Our transport route, pavement and bridge assessments are prepared with regard to relevant state and local road authority requirements, supporting OSOM permitting and construction access approval processes, including temporary traffic management engineering where required.
