The IJGlobal ESG Awards celebrate international infrastructure and energy companies that have been trailblazers on the Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) front. We’re pleased to announce we’re the winners of the ESG Asset Impact Award for APAC. Being recognised for our focus on transitioning and decarbonising the energy sector is great confirmation that we’re on the right track to achieving our clean energy future goals. #energytransition #netzero #renewableenergy

Our Managing Director Connected Energy, Mark Sinclair welcomed Victoria’s Minister for Energy, Lily D’Ambrosio MP and industry guests to our annual All Energy Australia sundowner in Melbourne this week. Mark took a few moments to discuss our east coast offering and our commitment to expanding our Melbourne-based facilities, which will see us offering stand-alone power systems, battery storage systems and hydrogen integrated solutions for NEM customers and Australia’s hydrogen mobility sector. Minister D’Ambrosio echoed the importance of establishing local capabilities and reaffirmed the Victorian Government’s commitment to upskilling the workforce and streamlining renewable energy policy to ensure the sector, and the state, can make a smooth transition to a low emissions future. Our east coast assets and pipeline of projects will enable us to double our Victorian workforce by the middle of next year, setting us up to be the go-to partner Australia-wide for clients seeking reliable energy transition solutions.

Endorsed by Reconciliation Australia, our first Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) marks an important milestone in our reconciliation journey. At Pacific Energy, we believe in the importance of reconciliation in Australia and respecting the deep connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have with the lands where we work and live. We strive to build meaningful relationships, respect, and trust between our business and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Our RAP reflects our commitment to an equitable and reconciled Australia and outlines tangible actions that aim to deliver equitable opportunities and recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures and rights.   We’ll be putting our words into action over the next 12 to 18 months.

Our first 6MW wind turbine has been safely and successfully installed at AngloGold Ashanti Australia’s Tropicana gold mine. This giant stands at more than 210 metres tall from footings to blade tip and is the first of four Goldwind turbines we’re installing as a part of our Tropicana renewables expansion. The blades are capable of rotating at speeds of 10.7 revolutions per minute, generating clean energy that, together with 24MW of solar, will help slash the mine’s carbon emissions by 65,000 tonnes on average each year. The Tropicana renewables expansion project is the biggest renewables integration we’ve worked on so far, and when completed, it’ll be Australia’s largest off-grid hybrid power system.

We’re partnering with GOLD FIELDS to deliver our biggest solar farm yet! The 35MW array is a part of the Gold Fields-managed St Ives Renewables Project, a landmark A$296 million energy transition project that will power the St Ives gold mine in WA’s Eastern Goldfields. The solar farm will complement Gold Fields’ 42MW of wind power to meet nearly half of the power system’s 70% renewable energy target. Together, the renewables will cut the mine’s carbon emissions by nearly 50% by 2030. Like all of our #cleanenergy solutions, the St Ives solar farm has been designed in house and with scalability in mind, to ensure our client’s renewable energy investment can continue to grow into the future.

We’re collaborating with Australia’s hydrogen sector to create scalable hydrogen refuelling facilities that service H2 fleet operators with reduced risk and reduced capital investment. Join our Future Fuels Development Lead, Sean Blythe, at All Energy Australia next Thursday to learn how we’re developing the nation’s hydrogen ecosystem to make hydrogen fleets a reality. #AllEnergyAU #renewables #cleanenergy #hydrogen #greenhydrogen

At Pacific Energy, we're at the forefront of developing hydrogen infrastructure that’s paving the way for Australia’s zero-emissions transport future. Our local team is integrating and commissioning the Nel Hydrogen PEM electrolyser as part of Viva Energy Australia’s H2 refuelling station in Geelong. The facility will support hydrogen-powered vehicles including trucks, buses, waste management vehicles and privately owned FCEVs. It’s just another example of how we’re becoming Australia’s leading provider of clean energy solutions. #energytransition #netzero #hydrogen #local

We’ve been working with SolarEdge Energy Storage for more than five years to bring sophisticated large-scale battery energy storage to power systems across Australia. We use world-class componentry, like SolarEdge’s advanced lithium-ion battery technology, to respond to the increasing complexities of renewable energy integration and systems design. Our collaborative approach with SolarEdge means we can maximise each component’s technical capabilities to deliver clean energy solutions that are reliable, fit-for-purpose, and ahead of the pack.

Over the past six months, we’ve been privileged to support the 2024 Future Female Leaders Program, which empowers the next generation of young women to step into leadership roles with confidence. Our Principal ESG Advisor and program mentor, Shaila Noronha, watched this year’s exceptional group of year 11 students flourish, transform and achieve. Representatives from Pacific Energy celebrated the girls’ achievements at the recent gala event. The night, like this year’s program, was huge success, filled with inspiration and a collective commitment to ensure we’re offering young women opportunities to be our change makers and future leaders. Congratulations to all of the student’s involved in this transformative program, and to the tireless efforts of those working behind the scenes to make this such a success. #FFLPGala2024 #WomenInLeadership #YoungLeaders #fuellingthefuture #WomenInEnergy

We’ve signed an agreement with Horizon Power to power the town of Exmouth with up to 80% renewable energy every year for the next 20 years! Our COO, Michael Hall, and MD Remote Power, Grant Farquhar joined the WA Premier, Roger Cook, WA Minster for Energy, Reece Whitby, and Horizon Power’s Acting CEO, Jennie Milne GAICD in Exmouth to announce this important #energytransition project. The new hybrid system, which will cut carbon emissions by up to 14,000 tonnes each year, will include a 9.6MW solar farm, nearly 50MW of battery storage, and back-up gas generators. It will be our very first off-grid system to deliver such a significant proportion of a town’s annual power supply using renewable energy, and that’s something we’re really proud of.
