Energy projects in Queensland
Updated
Queensland has a large, geographically spread power system and some of the country's strongest renewable resources. The state is working through a significant energy transition retiring coal, expanding wind and solar, building new storage and upgrading transmission across a grid that covers enormous distances. Industrial demand, population growth in the south-east and the economics of regional development all shape where new projects are viable.
