Sustainable Hepburn Association – Renewing the Earth (SHARE) is a not-for-profit, non-political community association run by volunteers in VIC. SHARE is the initiating organisation (then HREA) of Australia’s first community owned windfarm Hepburn Wind in 2006. SHARE has now gone low key, but continues to collaborate and support other community sustainability groups behind the scenes.
Hepburn Wind is the owner and operator of Australia’s first community-owned wind farm, at Leonards Hill, about 100km north-west of Melbourne, just south of Daylesford Victoria. The 4.1 MW wind farm hosts two turbines called Gale and Gusto, who produce enough clean energy for over 2000 homes.
Hepburn Energy (formerly Hepburn Wind) has been powering change in energy and renewables for over a decade. Starting as Australia’s first community-owned wind farm, we’re now working on being the first hybrid wind, solar and battery co-operative.
