The final legal barrier to building the Awhitu Wind Farm has now been removed following the withdrawal of an appeal to the High Court. Genesis Energy has reached agreement with the two community groups who had appealed the Environment Court decision to grant resource consents for the Awhitu Wind Farm.
As a result of the agreement, the Karioitahi Equestrian Environmental Protection Society Inc. (KEEPS) and the Waiuku Windfarm Information Group (WWIG) have withdrawn their High Court appeal enabling the wind farm project to proceed.
