It's Get Ready Queensland Week - don’t wait until it’s too late to get ready for storm season. At Powerlink we've kicked off our summer preparedness with more than 80 of our colleagues from Energy Queensland (Ergon Energy Network and Energex), CleanCo Queensland, Stanwell Corporation Limited, CS Energy and the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) to ensure our emergency response plans for Queensland’s power system are as coordinated and prepared as they can be for the busy summer period ahead. As summer brings a higher demand for electricity and more extreme weather events including cyclones and bushfires, it is time for all Queenslanders to consider how they can prepare for severe weather-related outages by: • Having an emergency kit • Have fully charged power banks for phones and other devices • Regularly maintain any power generator • Know and practice rooftop solar shut down procedures • Keep away from any fallen powerlines For more information about what to do in an emergency, visit https://bit.ly/2LihC7G #getreadyqueensland #emergency #stormseason #preparedness

Powerlink’s Kamerunga Substation and the transmission line between the Kamerunga and Woree substations are now nearing the end of technical service life and must be replaced to ensure a safe and reliable electricity supply into the future.  Powerlink is commencing consultation on the project and released the Draft Corridor and Site Selection Report for feedback which outlines the proposed transmission line corridor and substation site.  We’re seeking feedback from landholders, Traditional Owner groups, the community and other stakeholders until 5pm Wednesday 30 October 2024, and will be hosting a series of community drop-in sessions if you would like to learn more.  To find out more information and view the report, go to https://bit.ly/3X6xQXT #kamerunga #woree #consultation #engagement #northqueensland
