ENERGY.

GENERATED.

Stanwell owns and operates the leading coal-fired power stations in Queensland. The Tarong and Stanwell power stations have been providing power for the past 40 and 30 years respectively. They are flagship assets in the current electricity grid. We also harness waste from these plants for use in other industries.

Our assets are operated, maintained and managed with a dedicated team of people working around the clock to ensure reliable supply of electricity for the people and businesses of Queensland.
