ENERGY.

GENERATED.

Stanwell owns and operates the leading coal-fired power stations in Queensland. The Tarong and Stanwell power stations have played a critical role in meeting the state’s energy needs for more than 40 and 30 years respectively. They are flagship contributors to the current electricity grid providing 33% of the current energy needs of Queensland. We also recover and reuse waste from these stations to support a circular economy across other industries.

Our assets are operated, maintained and managed by a dedicated team working around the clock to deliver affordable, reliable electricity to Queenslanders and local businesses.

CURRENT RENEWABLE GENERATION

Stanwell’s pipeline of renewable energy projects is growing steadily – and to support this, we’re already supplying customers with renewable electricity through a range of Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs).

These agreements are a key part of our evolving generation mix as we build a portfolio of firmed renewable energy. New PPAs are coming online each year. You can explore them further at energy projects in construction.

OUR CURRENT RENEWABLE GENERATION IS PROVIDED BY:

  • Blue Grass Solar Farm - 49 MW
  • Longreach Solar Farm - 17.4 MW
  • Oakey Solar Farm - 25 MW
  • Whitsunday Solar Farm - 57.5 MW
  • Kidston Solar Farm - 50 MW
