We provide the spark for a bright future

About us

At Stanwell, we provide the spark for a bright future. As Queensland transforms to 80 per cent renewable energy by 2035, Stanwell is building our state’s clean energy future. We invest in reliable energy today, and renewable energy for tomorrow – creating opportunities for our people and communities. With Queensland's largest pipeline of renewable generation and storage in development, we already have an extensive supply of clean energy underway. As our renewable energy production increases to meet demand, we will gradually repurpose our existing power stations into clean energy hubs, replacing coal-fired energy with clean, renewable energy in line with the Queensland Energy and Jobs Plan. And while this transformation is undertaken, our coal-fired Tarong and Stanwell power stations will continue to generate reliable electricity to keep downward pressure on prices. At Stanwell we are committed to creating a bright future for our state and our people, helping them realise opportunities from the energy transformation. Stanwell is an energy employer for everyone. We foster an inclusive and diverse environment where everyone is embraced and respected. Our values - We care, We adapt and We deliver - are the foundation of our culture and underpin our success.

  • Kingaroy kids lead the 'other' renewables race to California - but first a pit-stop at Parliament Stanwell might be leading the race to renewables in Queensland, but a handful of hopeful high school students will soon be on their way to race in the world's largest hydrogen event in the United States next month. But before they head from Kingaroy to California for the Horizon Hydrogen Grand Prix (H2GP) World Final, the team made a pit stop at Parliament where Energy Minister Mick de Brenni and Stanwell CEO Michael O'Rourke wished them luck for the big race. Proudly sponsored by Stanwell, the Kingaroy State High School Endurance Racing Team (and their their self-built hydrogen-powered car) won the Gold Coast H2GP PRO race final in June and have now set their sights on the World Final! They will compete against 40 teams from around the world in a thrilling race to see who can make the most laps over six gruelling hours in hydrogen-fuelled vehicles. Stanwell is proud to promote the development of Queensland's next generation of renewable energy leaders and were also happy to recently host the team at the Tarong Power Station where they were powered up with some practice laps in preparation for the big event. The team is also sponsored by @RESGroup Ltd, Ken Mills Toyota Kingaroy and South Burnett Regional Council #cleanenergy #H2GP #Kingaroy #hydrogen

    From Kingaroy to California, thanks to the power of hydrogen. These year 10 and 12 students are headed to the World Hydrogen Grand Prix. They made a pit stop at Parliament to show me their creation.   They’ve designed, engineered, and constructed a state-of-the-art race car powered by hydrogen!   It’s a fuel of the future.   And thanks to publicly owned Stanwell, it’s sending these heroes to the world championships.   Good luck to Lexy, Chloe, Jack, Cooper and Oliver!

    Next Tuesday, Stanwell's General Manager of Hydrogen Projects, Phil Richardson, will be participating in a panel discussion titled "Renewable Hydrogen: Queensland - The Zero Carbon Hydrogen Leader," at the Smart Energy Queensland Conference. A key plank of Stanwell's strategy is to drive the development of Queensland's hydrogen industry. Through leadership of vital initiatives including the Central Queensland Hydrogen Project (CQ-H2), we look forward to sharing insights from our ongoing journey. Phil will be joining a panel chaired by Joanna Kay, General Manager of Zero Carbon Hydrogen Australia. The discussion will also feature insights from Alana Barlow (Dept. of Energy and Climate), Paul Hodgson (CQUniversity), Dr Anna Daniel (CSIRO), and James Boyle (TotalEnergies H2).

  • Batteries not included – unless, of course, you’re talking about our renewable energy pipeline. As we come to rely more on variable renewable energy sources like wind and solar power, batteries will help ensure the security and reliability of Queensland's energy grid. And we’ve got it covered. Large, grid-scale batteries and innovative new technologies, such as the Iron Flow Battery pilot we are developing in partnership with Energy Storage Industries Asia-Pacific (ESI), will be key to our Clean Energy Hubs at our Stanwell and Tarong power station sites. With these batteries, we'll be able to store and dispatching clean, renewable energy when Queensland needs it – any time of day or night.   Follow us to learn more about our battery storage projects, and learn more at stanwell.com #itshappeningnow #qldenergyandjobsplan

    Wasco Australia has been appointed to design and deliver the first foundation project in Stanwell’s Future Energy Innovation and Training Hub (FEITH). FEITH’s first project is an iron flow battery pilot, in which Stanwell is partnering with Australian company ESI to test a 1 MW/ 10MWh iron flow battery. Wasco will be responsible for the project design, earthworks, concreting, electrical and plumbing connections, and relocation of the iron flow battery containers. Design work is well underway, and earthworks are scheduled to commence in November 2024. FEITH will provide a pilot and testing facility for new energy technologies, and a training facility for energy workers to build on or develop new skills needed to support renewable energy assets,. It’s a step in the transformation of Stanwell Power Station into a clean energy hub by 2035 Discover more about FEITH and the significant role it will play in Stanwell’s energy transformation https://bit.ly/3SW1AnT

  • Stanwell Power Station's transformation into a Clean Energy Hub is in full swing! Construction has officially commenced on a massive 300 MW / 1200 MWh battery project at the site – the largest battery project of its kind in Queensland! The $747 million battery project was recently supercharged with around $448 million in funding boost from the Queensland Government’s Renewable Energy and Hydrogen Jobs Fund. This enabled us to double its capacity from two to four hours duration. Meanwhile, construction on Stanwell’s first energy storage project, the 300MW / 600 MWh Tarong battery, has reached its halfway mark. Upon completion, these incredible projects will enhance Stanwell's renewable energy capacity and contribute significantly to Queensland's energy future. The big batteries will play crucial roles in the energy transition by stabilising energy supply from renewable sources, ensuring affordable and reliable electricity for our commercial and industrial customers in Queensland and the Eastern Seaboard. And they are a key piece of our commitment to achieving 5GW of energy storage by 2035 and highlights Stanwell's vision for a sustainable and innovative energy future. Learn more about these two exciting projects https://bit.ly/3X2ZvsC

  • Steve Ashcroft's journey with Stanwell began in 1987 as an apprentice. Now, almost 40 years later, this Kingaroy local is helping to lead our clean energy transformation as a Construction Manager at Wambo Wind Farm, a project jointly owned by Stanwell and Cubico Sustainable Investments. Thanks to the Department of Energy and Climate for sharing Steve's inspiring story.

    Renewable energy is a huge part of Queensland’s future, but for Steve, his story goes right back to 1987 when he joined public energy provider Stanwell Corporation Limited as a young apprentice.    More than 30 years later, this energy sector journeyman transitioned his decades of experience to the Wambo Wind Farm, located near Jandowae, in the Darling Downs South West region.   Steve is a Kingaroy local, Construction Manager at Wambo Wind Farm, and an advocate of renewable energy.      The Wambo Wind Farm is being constructed as a joint venture between Stanwell and Cubico Sustainable Investments.     Steve is excited about the opportunity this project brings for his family, the local economy, and his community. To him, “it’s a chance to have a real impact on local communities, build a future for our families, and give our children something to marvel at and learn from.”  The Stage 1 delivery for the Wambo Wind Farm will generate 252MW of clean energy and power the equivalent of up to 170,000 homes every year. The project will create up to 200 jobs during construction.  Steve is just one of the many Queenslanders passionate about shaping the future of energy in our state, though.  If you are interested in how we’re moving to new sustainable energy sources like wind and solar in your area, so we can end our reliance on burning fossil fuels and reduce emissions, visit our website: https://lnkd.in/g5EUgnUU #jobs #transition #renewableenergy
