DEGRUSSA MININGWESTERN AUSTRALIA
DeGrussa is the largest off-grid solar battery storage project in Australia. It powers a gold and copper mine in
remote WA. Commissioned in June 2016, it provides a
solar and storage solution to the majority of the mine’s
daytime electricity requirements, offsetting up to 20% of total diesel consumption annually.
NECTAR FARMSVICTORIA
Bulgana Green Power Hub, consisting of 196 MW of wind
backed by a 20MW battery, is co-located with agri-business Nectar Farms to provide secure and affordable energy. Nectar Farms is using the latest in hydroponic glasshouse
and plant technology to create a 10 hectare state of the art
facility and over 130 local jobs.

EARLY WORKSMAY/JUNE 2020
CONSTRUCTION STAGESJULY 2020 TO FEBRUARY 2022
IN THE TOWN
Increased numbersAs early construction works
commence, you will start to see
more project and construction staff around town.
The local service economy will see
an increase in their business.
At peak, the numbers of construction staff will be up to 300 to 400 people.
We expect construction staff to come from surrounding towns
Chinchilla, Dalby and Tara, as well as the wider Toowoomba and Brisbane
areas.
ON THE ROADS
Road upgradesThe project will b e accessed via
Sixteen Mile Hall Road, which in turn will be accessed via Kogan
Condamine Road.
Prior to construction, extensive road upgrades will be made to Sixteen
Mile Hall Road to ensure that it is a graveled pavement road. Upgrades
to the road will be in-line with Western Downs Regional Council
standards.
AT THE SITE
Surveys being conductedCurrently undergoing extensive
consultation with the Barrangum
Native Title Group – Aboriginal cultural heritage survey, while a
Cultural Heritage Agreement has
been agreed and signed.
Construction hours will be Monday to Saturday from 6am to 6pm.
