AGL Energy Limited (AGL) in partnership with Meridian Energy plan to build one of the world’s largest wind farms that will be able to generate 420 MW of power, at Macarthur in Victoria, Australia. According to officials, this wind farm is expected to go online by 2013 for a cost of nearly $1 billion.

Due to its 140 3-megawatt wind turbines, the farm will be able to supply clean electricity to over 220,000 average Victorian homes and will also save about 1.7 million tons of greenhouse gases annually.
