Griffin Energy Pty Ltd, proposes to construct and operate the 200MW Bluewaters Power Station on a site located approximately 4km north-east of Collie. It will be a subcritical coal fired base-load generation facility with a nominal generating capacity of up to 200MW. The Bluewaters Power Station will supply electricity to customers in the proposed Coolangatta Industrial Estate, or via the South West Interconnected System (SWIS).

Griffin Power Pty Ltd, proposes to construct and operate a 200MW coal-fired power station known as the Bluewaters Power Station Phase II (Bluewaters II) adjacent to the proposed Bluewaters Power Station (Bluewaters I) on a site located approximately 4km north-east of Collie. It would be a subcritical coal-fired base-load generation facility with a nominal generating capacity of up to 200MW. The Bluewaters II Power Station would supplement the Bluewaters I Power Station and supply electricity... Read more...Last updated: March 23, 2018
The Bluewaters Power Station Phase I and II proposals were to construct and operate a sub-critical coal-fired base-load power generating facility with a nominal generating capacity of 200 megawatts per phase, four kilometres north east of Collie. The previous Minister for Environment requested that the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) inquire into and report on the matter of changing the implementation conditions relating to the Bluewaters Power Station proposal, with particular...

The proposal is for the construction and operation of two nominal 229 Megawatt (208 Megawatt net sent-out) subcritical coal-fired base-load generation plants (i.e. Bluewaters Power Station Phases III and IV) on a site adjacent to the existing Bluewaters Phase I and Phase II generating plants located approximately 4.5 kilometres north-east of Collie. The proposal is further documented in Ministerial Statement 837 and EPA Report 1349 . This assessment deals with a request for a change to the Time... Read more...Last updated: October 2, 2014
The proposal involves the construction and operation of a 40 Megawatt power plant fueled by up to 380,000 tonnes (+/-10%) per annum of, Eucalyptus globulus, (Bluegum) and pine plantation wastes, a pipeline for water supply, and a power line connecting the power plant to the sub-station. Inquiry under s46 in response to a request for extension of timeframe for substantial commencement, condition 3 of Ministerial Statement 791. Read more...Last updated: March 13, 2009

The installation of a wet compression system and associated infrastructure within the existing Kemerton Power Station, and the construction of evaporation ponds and a water pipeline to deliver water from an existing offtake located about 4 kilometres to the east. The wet compression system will enable the power station to generate additional power at ambient temperatures above International Standards Organisation conditions by eliminating the sensitivity of the installed gas turbines to ambient...

Worsley Alumina’s alumina refinery has existing approval for the production of 3.7 million tonnes per anum (Mtpa) of alumina. This proposal is for the construction and operation of a natural gas-fired, co-generation option. The proposal would be implemented in two stages, each consisting of a gas turbine with a nominal generation capacity of 120 MW electrical output and a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) of nominally 210 MW steam output. The facility would be located at the Worsley alumina... Read more...Last updated: July 2, 2002
The construction and operation of a 110 MW gas-fired power station at the Boddington Gold Mine approximately 12 km north-west of Boddington and the construction of a natural gas pipeline to the power station, predominantly along the railway reserve between Pinjarra and Boddington.

Inquiry under s46 regarding a proposal to increase the generating capacity of the Pinjar station by a nominal 340MW. This increased capacity would be provided through the installation of: a fourth Frame 9 (nominally llOMW) gas turbine, together with; four waste heat boilers and two 115MW steam turbines with associated infrastructure. This proposal will increase the total potential generating capacity of the Pinjar station from a nominal 575MW (7 times 37MW plus 3 times 105MW) to 915MW (575MW...

SECWA proposes to expand the generating capacity of the approved Pinjar gas turbine power station site (eight 37MW units) by approximately 300 megawatts (MW). This represents a doubling in the power generating capacity of the power station. In SECWA's original proposal (approved under Ministerial Statement 61 ) the plant was proposed to be a peaking plant which can operate at times of high demand (1 to 8 hours per day) or in emergencies. In this expansion proposal the new gas turbines are... Read more...Last updated: June 12, 1991
The proposal is to establish a second coal-fired base load power station 8km east-north-east of Collie. The proposal includes the construction of two 300 megawatt power generating units and associated infrastructure that will occupy 388 hectares of land. The proposed site is located on the edge of the Collie Coal Basin which is an area that contains the mineable coal reserves in the Collie region., The report:, An integral part of the environmental impact assessment process includes the need to...
