Boco Rock Wind Farm is a wind farm 10km southwest of Nimmitabel in the Snowy Mountains region of New South Wales, Australia. It has 67 GE 100-1.7 wind turbines with a hub height of 80m, and generates up to 113MW of electricity. It is managed by the developers, CWP Renewables but is now owned by EGCO.[1]

The engineering, procurement and construction contract for the wind farm was let in June 2013 to a consortium of GE and Downer EDI. The electricity generated is contracted for sale to EnergyAustralia.[2]
