Overall, the secret to WestWind Energy’s success is that it is highly experienced with a great deal of expertise but remains small and nimble. Brauer shares, “We are small, ethical and punch way above our weight as an organisation, developing one of the largest projects in the southern hemisphere. We accomplish so much because we have a fantastic team of dedicated professionals that are really engaged and passionate about the cause of what we’re doing.” Erin Gray, Head of Business Admin & Engagement for WestWind Energy, chimes in on the company’s community involvement perspective. “I work in the engagement area and we spend a lot of time staying very connected to the communities in which we work. We don’t have a one size fits all approach to our projects and the communities around them, we spend a lot of time genuinely understanding what’s important to them. To make sure our projects benefit the local communities as far as possible. That really matters to us.” Achieving excellence in cultural heritage management.
