When it comes to extreme weather events in Queensland, it’s not a matter of ‘if’ but ‘when’. Get ready in 3 simple steps. 1. Understand your risk Queensland commonly experiences floods, storms, cyclone and storm surges and, bushfires. Everyone's disaster risk is different. Where you live determines the types of natural disasters that affect you. 2. Make a plan Make a household severe weather emergency plan so your family knows what to do and who to contact in extreme weather. It takes just a few minutes and will give you peace of mind that your information is in one place. 3. Pack a kit Think about packing enough basics to last you at home for three days. Consider long life food and toiletries in case you can’t get to the shops, drinking water in case the water supply stops working, and batteries, a torch and a radio in case the power goes out.

Building powerline infrastructure at an operational mine site was made easier with innovative new drone technology by Infravision. With the pulling capability of a traditional helicopter stringing process, drone powerline stringing is safer, faster, more efficient and has fewer environmental impacts. #Yurika Project Manager, Mitch Turner was excited to find the first use of drone stringing saved time and labour and was a safe and unobtrusive process that overcame steep, rocky terrain. “We pride ourselves on innovation and doing what we can to make the work we do safer for everyone. “We used the drones to string 12 long spans of overhead conductor and attach line safety markers - it was an absolute game-changer,” he said.

Stanwell Power Station near Rockhampton has begun its transition to a Clean Energy Hub with the Stanwell Battery Energy Storage System (#BESS) due to be commissioned in December 2026. At 300MW and four hours' storage duration, it is the largest of its kind in construction in Queensland. #Yurika and our contract partners are hard at work this week with civil works to prepare the site. Our job is to design, supply, install and commission a BESS and associated Balance of Plant (BOP) connecting to the Powerlink Queensland Stanwell Substation. We’ve hit the ground running with civil works, getting the site ready for a 275/33kV substation, 33kV yard containing a whopping 324 Tesla Megapack 2XL batteries, MV transformers, 33kV ring main units and 33kV reticulation. On completion, the project will generate enough to power the equivalent of 203,000 homes. Stanwell Corporation Limited Adam Arnott

Building high voltage powerlines can be a challenging business, so we’re always looking for new and better ways to work safely. We’ve recently used some amazing new robot line spacers at our Clarke Creek Wind Farm project, which means this work can be done remotely from the ground. Fully remote controlled, the robot is sent up and down the lines to install spacers, keeping the individual powerline cables at a safe distance from each other to prevent contact. This is a world first innovation, and the first time the CSR-TWIN has successfully completed an installation of the PLP Twin Lok spacer. Credit to FulcrumAir and PLP for working across the industry to develop such an innovative new product that make it safer for our people and contractors to do their work efficiently. Thanks to Travis Jacklin and the #Yurika Transmission Team for always looking for a safer, better way. Squadron Energy Tim Page
