This report describes the Basin (thermal coal) and Surat Basin (coal opportunities and benefits that flow seam gas) and other areas of the state from deciding to pursue a clean, (Queensland Treasury 2017). renewable future. In response to these challenges, and in the Climate change, largely driven by the absence of Federal Government policies on burning of coal and gas, is worsening power or pollution, Queensland can lead extreme weather events that threaten the transition to a modern, clean renewable Queensland’s unique natural assets and powered grid (Climate Council 2017a). tourism industry.

    Wind Turbine Transportation Temporary delays – Gateway Motorway / Mt Gravatt-Capalaba Road intersection May 2019 – July 2019 Saturday to Thursday nights between 10pm and 12am Saturday to Thursday nights (six nights per week), between 10pm and 12am, the intersection of the Gateway Motorway and Mt Gravatt-Capalaba Road will be closed intermittently, for approximately 15-20 minutes, to allow for the safe movement of oversize vehicles transporting wind turbine blades and large tower sections to the Coopers Gap Wind Farm near Cooranga North. Traffic will be held at the Gateway Motorway / Mt Gravatt-Capalaba Road intersection and on the motorway off-ramp until it is safe to continue. We will try to minimise the disruption to other road users where possible, but some delays are to be expected. These temporary closures will be in place between May and July 2019. Closure times Gateway Motorway / Mt Gravatt-Capalaba Road intersection • Saturday to Thursday nights (six nights per week), intermittent closures between 10pm – 12am, from May to July 2019 Transportation of oversize wind turbine components Between January and November 2019, components for the wind farm’s 123 GE wind turbines will be transported over 300km from the Port of Brisbane to the Coopers Gap Wind Farm site. In total there will be approximately 1200 oversize transport movements to deliver all of the wind turbine components to site – including blades, tower sections, hubs and nacelles. The blades, which are up to 67.2 metres long, are the largest wind turbine blades ever transported in Australia. The movement of such large pieces of equipment requires detailed planning and coordination.

  • Surat Basin Non-Resident Population Projections, 2021 to 2025
    Queensland Government Statistician’s Office Surat Basin non–resident population projections, 2021 to 2025 Introduction The resource sector in regional Queensland utilises fly-in/fly-out Figure 1 Surat Basin region and drive-in/drive-out (FIFO/DIDO) workers as a source of labour supply. These non-resident workers live in the regions only while on-shift (refer to Notes, page 9). The Australian Bureau of Statistics’ (ABS) official population estimates and the Queensland Government’s population projections for these areas only include residents. To support planning for population change, the Queensland Government Statistician’s Office (QGSO) publishes annual non–resident population estimates and projections for selected resource regions. This report provides a range of non–resident population projections for local government areas (LGAs) in the Surat Basin region (Figure 1), from 2021 to 2025. The projection series represent the projected non-resident populations associated with existing resource operations and future projects in the region. Projects are categorised according to their standing in the approvals pipeline, including stages of In this publication, the Surat Basin region is defined as the environmental impact statement (EIS) process, and the local government areas (LGAs) of Maranoa (R), progress towards achieving financial close. Series A is based Western Downs (R) and Toowoomba (R). on existing operations, projects under construction and approved projects that have reached financial close. Series B, C and D projections are based on projects that are at earlier stages of the approvals process. Projections in this report are derived from surveys conducted by QGSO and other sources. Data tables to supplement the report are available on the QGSO website (www.qgso.qld.gov.au).

[email protected] w. www.genexpower.com.au 5 June 2017 ASX Announcement GENEX WELCOMES QLD STATE GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCEMENT OF STRATEGIC TRANSMISSION INFRASTRUCTURE FOR NORTH QUEENSLAND Genex Power Limited (ASX: GNX) (Genex or Company) welcomes the announcement from the Hon. Annastacia Palasczcuk, Queensland State Premier, in relation to the development of transmission infrastructure in North Queensland to unlock up to 2000MW of renewable projects in the region. As part of the announcement, the Queensland Government has stated that it will commit $150m towards developing a transmission line which will allow the 250MW Kidston Pumped Storage Hydro Project and the 270MW Kidston Solar Project (Stage Two) to connect directly into the national grid. This is a significant milestone for Genex as it secures a route to market for the renewable energy generated at Kidston. Genex will work with the government to ensure the development of the transmission assets fits in with the overall development of the Kidston Energy Hub. The media release states in part: “…The clean energy hub would connect the 75MW wind farm at Forsayth being developed by Infigen, the 520MW Kidston Hydro and Solar projects being developed by Genex and the Kennedy Energy Park, a combination of wind and solar generation with a capacity of 1200MW near Hughenden or other projects in the area.” Responding to the media release, Genex’s Executive Director Simon Kidston, who was present at the announcement by the Premier said: “The announcement of the feasibility study represents a very significant milestone for Genex.

  • Environmental Impact Statement
    AECOM Coopers Gap Wind Farm 167 Socio-Economic Assessment 10.0 Socio-Economic Assessment 10.1 Introduction This chapter of the EIS provides a summary of the Socio-Economic Impact Assessment for the Coopers Gap Wind Farm (ERM, 2008). The following discussion on socio-economic factors has been updated where necessary to reflect changes to the Project since 2008, and to address issues raised by submitters during the public notification of the Initial Assessment Report in 2011. Details of the public notification are provided in Section 10.5. In response to issues raised by submitters regarding potential health impacts, this chapter also provides a summary of a literature review of wind farms and human health. A copy of this literature review, completed by The Long View Group, is contained in Appendix H, Volume 3. 10.2 Scope of assessment The purpose of the assessment is to assess the social and economic impact of the Project on the local and regional community. The scope includes the following: - Assessment of the social, economic and cultural area - Community engagement - Social baseline study - Workforce profile and demand profile - Social impact action plan - Cumulative impact assessment. The desired outcomes of the above actions are: - Defining the Project’s social, economic and cultural area of influence - Engagement with the local community and understanding of their concerns regarding the Project - Informed baseline of impacts of the Project - Impacts and mitigation management - Understanding of the workforce profile and demand for employment within the local area - Impact of the Project in consideration of concurrent coordinated projects. Indigenous and historical (non-Indigenous) cultural values, and the potential impact upon them are discussed in Chapter 18 Cultural Heritage.
