Ipulazi likaNeoen elisebenza ngamandla elanga likaNeoen elingu-460 MWp esifundeni saseQueensland eNtshonalanga Downs liqhubekela phambili ngokushesha lapho liphothulwa khona lapho u-opharetha wenethiwekhi ephethwe nguhulumeni i-Powerlink eqinisekisa ukuthi ukuxhuma kugridi kagesi sekuphelile.
Ipulazi lelanga elikhulukazi laseQueensland, eliyingxenye ye-Neoen's Western Downs Green Power Hub eyizigidi ezingama-$600 ezophinde ihlanganise nebhethri elikhulu elingu-200 MW/400 MWh, selifinyelele ingqopha-mlando ngokuxhuma kunethiwekhi yokusakaza ye-Powerlink ephothuliwe.
Umqondisi ophethe iNeoen Australia uLouis de Sambucy uthe ukuphothulwa kwemisebenzi yokuxhuma kuphawula "ingqophamlando yephrojekthi ebalulekile" ngokwakhiwa kwepulazi lelanga elizosongwa ezinyangeni ezizayo.Ipulazi lelanga kulindeleke ukuthi liqale ukusebenza ngo-2022.
“Ithimba lisazimisele ngokuphothula umsebenzi wokwakha ezinyangeni ezizayo futhi sibheke ngabomvu ukuletha amandla avuselelekayo angabizi kakhulu kwaCleanCo naseQueensland,” usho kanje.
Iipulazi elikhulu lelanga elingu-460 MWp, eyathuthukiswa endaweni engamahektha ayi-1500 cishe amakhilomitha angama-20 eningizimu-mpumalanga yeChinchilla esifundeni saseQueensland eNtshonalanga Downs, izokhiqiza u-400 MW wamandla elanga, ikhiqize ngaphezu kwe-1,080 GWh yamandla avuselelekayo ngonyaka.
Isikhulu esiphezulu se-Powerlink, u-Paul Simshauser, sithe imisebenzi yokuxhuma igridi ihilela ukwakha amakhilomitha ayisithupha olayini kagesi omusha nengqalasizinda ehlobene esiteshini esikhona se-Western Downs Substation esixhumene nesixhumi esiseduze saseQueensland/New South Wales.
“Lo mzila kagesi osanda kwakhiwa ungena e-Neoen's Hopeland Substation, nayo manje esesinikezwe amandla okusiza ukuthutha ugesi ovuselelekayo okhiqizwa epulazini lelanga uwayise eMakethe Kagesi Kazwelonke (NEM),” usho kanje.
"Sibheke ngabomvu ukusebenzisana noNeoen ukuze sihlole okokugcina futhi siqale ukusebenza ezinyangeni ezizayo njengoba ukuthuthukiswa kwepulazi lelanga kuyaqhubeka."
I-Western Downs Green Power Hub enkulu isekelwa i-generator yamandla avuselelekayo ephethwe uhulumeni wezwe i-CleanCo eneuzibophezele ekuthengeni i-320 MWwamandla elanga akhiqizwayo, azosiza umbuso ukuthi wenze inqubekelaphambili ekuhlosweni kwawoAmandla avuselelekayo angama-50% ngo-2030.
Usihlalo we-CleanCo Queensland, u-Jacqui Walters, uthe i-Hub izokwengeza amandla amakhulu avuselelekayo e-Queensland, ikhiqize amandla anele ukunika amandla ezindlini ezingu-235,000 ngenkathi igwema amathani angu-864,000 e-CO2 ekhishwayo.
“Amandla elanga angu-320 MW esiwathole kule phrojekthi ajoyina i-CleanCo eyingqayizivele yokukhiqiza umoya, amanzi kanye negesi futhi asenze sikwazi ukunikeza amandla athembekile, akhipha igesi ephansi ngentengo encintisanayo kumakhasimende ethu,” kusho yena.
"Sinegunya lokuletha u-1,400 MW wamandla avuselelekayo amasha nge-inthanethi ngo-2025 futhi ngamaphrojekthi afana ne-Western Downs Green Power Hub sizokwenza lokhu ngenkathi sisekela ukukhula nemisebenzi esifundeni sase-Queensland."
UNgqongqoshe wezaMandla waseQueensland, uMick de Brenni, uthe ipulazi lelanga, elivuse imisebenzi yezokwakha engaphezu kuka-450, "liwubufakazi obengeziwe bemininingwane ye-Queensland njengamandla avuselelekayo kanye ne-hydrogen superpower".
"Ukuhlolwa komnotho okwenziwa yi-Aurecon kulinganisela ukuthi le phrojekthi izokhiqiza imali engaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-850 zamaRandi emsebenzini wezomnotho jikelele e-Queensland," esho.
"Inzuzo eqhubekayo yezomnotho ilinganiselwa ezigidini ezingu-32 zamaRandi ngonyaka emnothweni waseQueensland, u-90% wayo okulindeleke ukuthi uhlomulise ngokuqondile isifunda saseWestern Downs."
Le phrojekthi iyingxenye yezinhlelo ze-Neoen zezifiso zokuba nokungaphezu kwalokho10 GW womthamo osebenzayo noma osakhiwa ngo-2025.
