Environmental Planning and Waste Management Sydney
Verdant Earth Technologies Limited is planning to repurpose the existing Redbank Power Station to use 100% waste wood residues for operations. The power station is located at 112 Long Point Rd, Warkworth (Lot 450 DP 1119428) approximately 9 kms west of the township of Singleton. Consultation with the community is underway to seek feedback on this exciting new development for the Hunter.
Founded in 2018, Verdant Earth Technologies is an Australian-based green energy company that owns, develops, and operates green hydrogen and renewable energy assets. Verdant believes the foundation of a net-zero economy is net-zero infrastructure. The Redbank Power Station is central to this strategy and to Verdant’s proposed Renewable Energy Hubin the Hunter Valley.
Upon restart, the facility will be one of the largest green baseload renewable energy providers in NSW and the only existing facility capable of providing continuous green 24/7 power with near net-zero CO2 emissions, adding to grid stability. The power station will receive up to 900,000 tonnes of waste wood residues for conversion into electricity. The waste wood residues will be transported by trucks to the power station. The existing fuel storage area and modified fuel handling equipment will enable the plant to use the new fuel type.
The 151-megawatt power station will use its existing “fluidised bed” technology, well-known for its highly efficient and low emissions profile, to produce 1 million megawatt-hours (MWh) of green baseload power, equivalent to supplying 200,000 homes.
