Introduction

Synergy is expanding its renewable energy portfolio with a range of new projects. The Shire of Kondinin will play a vital role in Western Australia’s energy transition by hosting the King Rocks Wind Farm. The King Rocks Wind Farm will be approximately 35km north-east of Hyden. 

In constructing the wind farm, priority will be given to local employment. In addition to any local employment, the project is also expected to require up to 200 workers who may need temporary accommodation. To support this, a temporary accommodation facility may be built 800m north of the Hyden town centre. Synergy is currently assessing the workforce requirements which will determine the appropriate size of the temporary accommodation facility.

It’s important to Synergy that our project has positive economic and social benefits for Hyden, and we want your opinion of how to best achieve this integration.
