About Us

Windlab is Australia's clean energy pioneer. For over 20 years, we have set new standards in the development and construction of clean energy infrastructure through an unwavering commitment to balance the needs of our stakeholders, community, Country, and the environment.

We're raising the bar on renewables through our commitment to the highest standards from day one, driven by a long-term view and a strong sense of integrity. Our in-house experts bring the agility and technical insight needed to innovate quickly and solve complex challenges. And through genuine partnerships, we work closely with communities to ensure our projects deliver meaningful and lasting benefits.

Our values reflect who we are, how we work, and what we stand for:

• Be tenacious. Adapting and flexing helps us overcome challenges and navigate change. We are proactive and responsive, comfortable in complexity.
• Raise the bar. Creating new standards beats being limited by existing ones. We are always learning, seeking out opportunities to improve, willing to get our hands (and boots) dirty.
• Think differently. Innovative solutions are guided by science, cutting edge methods, and the highest levels of expertise. We create magic when we put our heads together and remain open to the possibilities.
• Be ruthlessly responsible. We do the right thing because we want to — not because we have to. We listen, show compassion, keep our promises, and create lasting benefits for our people, community, environment, and Country.
