AGL Coopers Gap Wind Farm

The Coopers Gap Wind Farm is located 180km north-west of Brisbane near Cooranga North, between Dalby and Kingaroy. The proposed installed capacity of the wind farm is approximately 350MW, to be delivered in two stages. 
Stakeholder consultation is a very important part of the development process and AGL welcomes feedback and inquiries. Please refer to the information on the AGL Coopers Gap Wind Farm microsite.

AGL Macarthur Wind Farm

The AGL Macarthur Wind Farm is currently in construction. 140 turbines are planned to operate at a capacity of 420MW.
The AGL Macarthur Wind Farm is due for completion in early 2013.

Newcastle Gas Storage Facility

The Newcastle GSF will provide a safe and effective way to store natural gas, which is transported to Newcastle through existing gas pipelines between Sydney and Hexham.

Tarrone Power Project

AGL proposes to construct and operate an initially 350 megawatt to 620 megawatt (and ultimately up to approximately 920 megawatt) gas turbine power station on rural grazing land approximately 7km west of Willatook, Victoria. The Tarrone Power Project will act as a peaking power station to supply electricity to Victoria during times of peak demand.

Dalton Power Project

AGL proposes to construct and operate an initially 250 megawatt to 780 megawatt (and ultimately up to 1500 megawatt) gas turbine power station on rural grazing land approximately 3km north of the town of Dalton, NSW. The Dalton Power Project will act as a peaking power station to supply electricity to New South Wales during times of peak demand.

AGL Oaklands Hill Wind Farm

The AGL Oaklands Hill Wind Farm is currently in construction. Thirty-two turbines are planned to operate at a capacity of 63 MW (constrained).
The AGL Oaklands Hill Wind Farm is due for completion in late 2011.

AGL Hallett Wind Farms

The AGL Hallett 4 Wind Farm was commissioned in May 2011.The AGL Hallett 5 Wind Farm is currently in construction and due for completion in late 2011.

Gloucester Coal Seam Gas Project

The Gloucester Coal Seam Gas Project is a long-term investment in the Gloucester region to develop coal seam gas resources, including the installation of gas wells, construction of a central processing facility and construction of a high-pressure pipeline to transport the gas.

Camden and Hunter Gas Projects

The Hunter Gas Project covers two Petroleum Exploration Licences (PELs) over approximately 10,000 square kilometres in the Hunter region of New South Wales.
The Sydney Gas Project covers two PELs over approximately 7,000 square kilometres in the central coast and Sydney region of New South Wales.

TIPS Expansion

AGL is proposing two major components as part of the project. It will expand and diversify the existing Torrens Island Power Station (TIPS) operations which have operated under AGL ownership since 1 July 2007:

  • Power station expansion – open cycle gas turbine peaking plant involving up to four gas turbines (total nominal installed capacity of 600MW), with a proposed staged construction responding to market demand; and
  • Gas storage facility – comprising of a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) production plant, storage tank and re-gasification units that convert LNG to pipeline quality gas.

AGL Geogen

Geogen Victoria Pty Ltd (Geogen Victoria) is a geothermal exploration company with the strategic objective to develop commercial scale renewable power generation connected to the National Electricity Market (NEM). The company, which is wholly owned by AGL, drives AGL's geothermal exploration efforts in Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland.
