Coopers Gap Wind Farm is a 453 megawatt wind farm in the Western Downs and South Burnett regions of Queensland, Australia.[1] It is located approximately 175 km north-west of the state capital Brisbane, and 50 kilometres south-west of Kingaroy and 65 kilometers north of Dalby.[1][2] When construction was announced to be completed on 30 April 2020, it became the largest wind farm in Australia.[3][4][5] This record was held until 10 December 2020 when the Stockyard Hill Wind Farm in Victoria was completed.[6][7]
