Capacity: 31 x 3mw V90 – 93mw

Our market leading team members worked on the T3 project which was similar in scale to Te Apiti but with the next generation turbines with increased capacity to 3mw. The project was unique in regard to building new capacity within an operational wind farm.

David Rubery bid and managed the CBOP delivery with the full range of disciplines including bulk earthworks, drainage, pavements, turbine foundation construction, cable reticulation install, substation civil works, transmission line civil works, fencing and associated site, health & safety, environmental, traffic and quality compliance.

Goodman Contractors under the management of Stan Goodman were the principal subcontractors for the bulk earthworks, foundation excavations, drainage, environmental management and site rehabilitation.
