This is a list of wind farms in South Australia. As of 2008, South Australia has an installed wind farm capacity of about 500 MW (Canunda, Cathedral rocks, Lake Bonney Stage 1, Mount Millar, Starfish Hill, and Wattle Point), with approximately a further 270 MW under construction (Hallett, Lake Bonney Stage 2). Prior to 2003, a 150 kW unit at Coober Pedy was the only large wind turbine in South Australia.[1]
