Plantagenet ratepayers have thrown their support behind a proposal to establish a wind farm near Mt Barker. All of the 48 submissions to Shire of Plantagenet on the rezoning of farmland north of Mt Barker for the windfarm supported the project.

Shire CEO Rob Stewart said SkyFarming Pty Ltd's proposed three turbines would generate an equivalent amount of electricity to that used by the town. The rezoning amendment has been forwarded to the Western Australian Planning Commission for approval.
