The Ceres Project is a wind farm under construction on the York Peninsula, in South Australia. The project includes approximately 600 MW of wind turbine generational capacity, as well as a high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission line to Adelaide, under Gulf St Vincent, comprising of two 300 MW connections (74 km of marine and terrestrial cable). Category:Wind farms in South Australia Category:Proposed renewable energy power stations in Australia The application for the project was initially submitted to the state government in the third quarter of 2012, and was approved on the 10th of February, 2014. A revised application was submitted to the regulator in 2017, with minor amendments "to allow the utilisation of the most modern wind turbine technology", increasing the maximum tip height to 220 metres, an increase in the maximum rotor diameter to 160 metres, a reduction in the total number of turbines (from 187 to 170, based on increases in the efficiency of turbine technology), and a capping of the output (at 630 MW). The revised plan was approved by the department on the 9th of April, 2018.
