Queensland Gas Company is building the Condamine Power Station near Miles on the western Darling Downs. Austrian Energy and Siemens have signed a construction contract for the project, which is expected to begin during 2007.
The plant will produce 150 megawatts of power and is expected to go online in September 2009.[1]
Electricity will be generated by two gas turbines and one steam turbine from coal seam gas.[2] The gas reserves will be extracted from the Berwyndale South Gasfield.[3] Building the plant directly on top of the gas source will provide some of the cheapest gas fired electricity to the National Electricity Market.
