The 79.2 MW Emu Downs Wind Farm ( ) is a joint development between Stanwell Corporation and Griffin Energy and construction of the $180 million project commenced in November 2005. The site is approximately 200 kilometres north of Perth, near Cervantes and the project was commissioned in October 2006. blank">Emu Downs Wind Farm

Emu Downs Wind Farm consists of 48 wind turbines (each with 1.65 MW generating capacity), a substation, interconnection to the main 132 kV electricity grid, administration and stores buildings, and a network of access roads. The wind farm is close to the coast, with a good quality wind resource that has increased wind speeds and reliability aligning with periods for peak power demand.

The wind farm provides electricity to run a desalination plant, 160 miles (260 km) to the south. The Kwinana Desalination Plant, located just south of Perth, turns water from the _Indian Ocean into nearly 40 million gallons (almost 152 million liters) of drinking water per day.

Emu Downs Wind Farm is accredited under the Australian Government's Renewable Energy (Electricity) Act 2000 and as a Green Power Generator by the Sustainable Energy Development Authority.
