Capital Wind Farm was developed and constructed and continues to be operated by Infigen.
Capital East Solar Farm 1 and 2 are co-located on the same site and adjacent to Capital Wind Farm. Construction was completed on the 120kW Capital East Solar Farm 1 in 2013. This was expanded in 2018 to 500kW with the addition of Capital East Solar 2 by 5B whom now provide the operations and maintenance services for both solar farms.
The Capital Wind Farm Community Consultative Committee (CCC) provides recommendations as to how Infigen can further contribute to the local economy, community and environment.
