Australia: Adelaide Brighton will power some of its facilities with electricity from a 278.5MW wind farm owned by Infigen Energy, according to the Australian Financial Review. Adelaide Brighton will use the electricity to supply two of its cement plants near Adelaide, South Australia, and a quarry on Yorke Peninsula.
The two companies have signed a contract that calls for the cement manufacturer to buy power from the Lake Bonney wind farm for a five-year term. Specific terms of the deal have not been provided, while the contracted amount is said to be more than the 88GWh that were contracted in a bulk power purchase agreement (PPA) deal for a wind project in Melbourne earlier in November 2017.
