Bringing Murrumbidgee Solar Farm to life
Fyfe’s expertise in traction power modelling was key in identifying the most feasible solutions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90Sg-IReYXk&t=1s Watch the 5MW Murrumbidgee Solar Farm rise out of the earth in this impressive time-lapse video. The farm, 2km from the rural town of Jerilderie in New South Wales, was built by our client Next Generation Electrical (NGE) for specialist […]
Going solar on Phillip Island
The people of Phillip Island are keen on a solar farm and/or solar carpark to provide sufficient energy for the 12,000-strong population – but needed informed advice. The people of Phillip Island in Victoria have a vision: 100% renewable energy by 2030. They are keen on a solar farm and/or solar carpark to provide sufficient […]
From a landfill to a renewable energy hub
A renewable energy facility in Springvale South in south Melbourne will be a first in Australia once construction starts – it will be the country’s only utility-scale hub built on a former landfill.

De-risking wind farm projects
Why the biggest risks aren’t always where you think. Wind farm development is becoming increasingly complex. Projects are larger, stakeholder expectations are higher, our grids are more congested than ever. At the same time, approval pathways are being shaped by interconnected technical, environmental, social, delivery and cost constraints, as well as a changing policy environment. In this context, the most material […]
Civil engineering in wind farm development: A closer look
In part two of our series on the engineering expertise involved in wind farm development, we discuss civil engineering’s role and value While the towering turbines often steal the spotlight, it’s civil engineering that underpins any successful wind farm development. From initial design to the final construction stages, civil engineers make sure wind farms are efficient, […]

Understanding and allocating risks in future energy infrastructure projects
In the current market, executing large-scale energy projects poses significant risks to developers, engineering partners, and contractors, especially when the margins for success are slim. The maturity of organisations (and particularly developers) in recognising and addressing risks is critical. Understanding the potential risks involved in energy infrastructure projects and allocating those risks to parties equipped […]
Decarbonising cement: Green Cement Transformation project
Our engineering and geospatial services are helping the Hallett Group take significant steps towards decarbonising cement in Australia. Australia currently uses around 12 million tonnes of cementitious products each year, with around half of this volume imported. The Hallett Group’s Green Cement Transformation project will see the company creating dedicated facilities to manufacture and distribute […]

The company’s inaugural hydrogen generation and refuelling station, strategically located at the Port of Brisbane, will offer an innovative […]
What do we need to do to make green hydrogen viable?
The widespread adoption of green hydrogen as an energy source hinges on lower levelised costs and high efficiency Just like the levelised cost of energy, the levelised cost of hydrogen (LCOH) measures all expenses involved in producing hydrogen, including initial investments, operational costs, electricity charges, grid fees, and taxes. It also considers any available subsidies […]
