Name of the Project
Coburn project power facilities project.
Location
Western Australia.
Project Owner/s
Strandline Resources.
Project Description
The project entails the construction of a 32 MW hybrid gas and renewable-energy solution for the Coburn mineral sands project.
Coburn’s power station will be located near the project’s mineral separation plant, designed for a maximum demand capacity of 16 MW and average consumed power of about 10 MW.
Natural gas will be supplied by others under an industry standard long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply agreement and trucked to an on-site storage and revapourisation facility.
The LNG will feed a set of efficient engine generators on an N+1 basis and has an estimated 30% solar penetration for the major stable loads.
Generation is at 11 kV, with step-up to 22 kV for power transmission to the project loads across the mine site.
