Clean Energy Council Members

As a proud member of the Clean Energy Council, Cubico Sustainable Investments is committed to upholding the highest standards in renewable energy development. We are a signatory to the Best Practice Charter for Renewable Energy Projects, a set of voluntary commitments designed to promote transparency, respect for local communities, and responsible development in all clean energy projects.

The charter outlines ten key commitments that guide Cubico's approach to renewable energy projects, including the proposed Curyo Wind Farm. These principles ensure we engage respectfully with Traditional Owners and local communities, minimise environmental and cultural impacts, and provide lasting benefits to the regions where we operate.

From addressing community concerns to supporting local economies, we are dedicated to building projects that are not only sustainable but also beneficial to the people and environments they touch. Read more about the Best Practice Charter and our commitments here.

Commitments

1. We will engage respectfully with the local community, including Traditional Owners of the land, to seek their views and input before finalising the design of the Project and submitting a development application.

2. We will provide timely information and be accessible and responsive in addressing the local community’s feedback and concerns throughout the lifetime of the development.

3. We will be sensitive to areas of high biodiversity, cultural and landscape value in the design and operation of projects.

4. We will minimise the impacts on highly productive agricultural land where feasible and explore opportunities to integrate continued agricultural production into the project.

5. We will consult the community on the potential visual, noise, traffic, and other impacts of the development, and on the mitigation options where relevant.

6. We will support the local economy by providing local employment and procurement opportunities wherever possible.

7. We will offer communities the opportunity to share in the benefits of the development and consult them on the options available, including the relevant governance arrangements.

8. We commit to using the development to support educational and tourism opportunities where appropriate.

9. We will demonstrate responsible land stewardship over the life of the development and welcome opportunities to enhance the ecological and cultural value of the land.

10. At the end of the Project’s design or permitted life we will engage with the community on plans for the responsible decommissioning, or refurbishment/repowering of the site.
