They are located at the Woolnorth property at Woolnorth (which includes the location known as [Cape Grim](/source/Cape_Grim)), in the far north-west of [Tasmania](/source/Tasmania), Australia. Both wind farms are operated by Woolnorth Wind Farm Holdings, a 75:25 [joint venture](/source/Joint_venture) between [Shenhua Group](/source/Shenhua_Group) and [Hydro Tasmania](/source/Hydro_Tasmania).[1][2] ## Farms Bluff Point Wind Farm was constructed in two stages. The first consisted of six 1.75 MW [Vestas](/source/Vestas) V66 turbines and was commissioned in 2002. Stage two, commissioned in 2004, expanded the wind farm with a further 31 of the same turbines, for a total generating capacity of 65 MW.[2] Studland Bay Wind Farm was commissioned in 2007 and consists of 25 [Vestas](/source/Vestas) V90 turbines, each with a capacity of 3 MW, for a total capacity of 75 MW.[2][3][4] ## Operations The generation table uses [eljmkt nemlog](http://nemlog.com.au/) to obtain generation values for each month.
