Community – Callide Wind Farm

The proposed project offers direct benefits to local communities through potential employment opportunities during the construction and operational phases, together with indirect economic benefits for local businesses through the sourcing of local products, materials and services. Once the project is operational, it is also proposed to dedicate a portion of the project’s revenue to support broad-based local community initiatives and organisations through a Community Fund.

Drop-in session Biloela

DP Energy Australia would like to thank everyone who attended our recent Callide Wind Farm community drop-in session held on 2 February 2026 in Biloela.

It was a successful evening with strong local participation, and we appreciated the opportunity to speak directly with community members, answer questions, and hear valuable feedback about the project. Community input is an important part of how we continue to shape the project moving forward.

If you were unable to attend or would like to stay informed, please sign up for Project Updates to receive future news and announcements.

Callide Community Sponsorship Program

Callide Community Sponsorship Program

DP Energy is proud to support local communities while the Callide Wind Farm project is still in development.

Through the Callide Community Sponsorship Program, we provide up to $50,000 per year during the development phase to support community events, local initiatives and grassroots projects across the Banana Shire and surrounding region.

This early support reflects our commitment to working alongside the community – not just when construction begins, but from the very start of the project journey.

What the program supports

Funding may be available for a wide range of community-led activities, including:

Community events and festivals
Local school and education initiatives
Sporting clubs and junior development
Community groups and not-for-profit projects
Agricultural shows and regional showcases

We aim to prioritise initiatives that are locally based, community-focused, and deliver a positive benefit for the region.

Community sponsorships so far

Since launching community sponsorships, the Callide Wind Farm project has been pleased to support a growing number of community events and initiatives, including:

Callide Dawson Beef Carcase Competition (Platinum sponsorship and award support)
Biloela Centenary celebrations (community event sponsorship)
Biloela State School (education initiatives and events)
The Callide Valley Show – Annual Agricultural Show (ongoing event sponsorship)
Banana Shire Council initiatives (including Brigalow Arts Festival)
Rotary Club events and community projects (including Biloela Christmas Festival)

These sponsorships are part of our broader commitment to being a positive contributor to the region as the project progresses toward construction.
