Tallawara B power station project, Australia
Name of the Project
Tallawara B power station project.
Location
New South Wales, Australia.
Project Owner/s
EnergyAustralia.
Project Description
The Tallawara B project will be the first large-scale gas-powered plant to be built in Australia in more than 12 years.
It entails the development of Australia’s first dual-fuel-capable power plant.
The peaking power station will be capable of using a blend of green hydrogen and natural gas, with the plant’s greenhouse-gas emissions to be fully offset over its operational life.
The project aims to accelerate the energy transition in Australia using gas that can be further decarbonised using hydrogen and hydrogen-blended fuels.
The 316 MW power plant will operate with high operational flexibility as a “peaker” plant – powering up quickly when needed to stabilise the power grid during demand peaks – and it will use partial loads of hydrogen to decrease its emissions footprint.
The project will include a generator, an exhaust stack, a generator step-up transformer and a control system.
Potential Job Creation
The Tallawarra project is expected to contribute A$300-million to the economy and create 250 jobs during construction.
