Our crew on the New Bridgewater Bridge Project in Tasmania have teamed up with local Social Enterprise, Colony 47, to provide subsidised accommodation to some of our new project employees.
The Colony 47 initiative, called ‘JumpStart’, provides support for 18 to 24 year olds who are looking to establish themselves in housing - a real challenge at this time of low availability and high rents.
See that little bottle of clear liquid in Ana Mills hand? That’s HVO - 100 per cent renewable diesel - which we’re about to trial in our Franna cranes.
HVO is typically made from used cooking oil has the potential to reduce lifecycle emissions by 95% compared with mineral diesel!
It’s not currently produced in Australia so we imported it from overseas for the trial.
It’s another important step on our Carbon Reduction Roadmap and our goal to be operationally net zero by 2030.
Our building team at Built Environs are trialling the 'Washbox' equipment wash station on The Queen Elizabeth Hospital project in Adelaide.
Washbox is an Australian invention that provides a site-based, totally closed loop tool wash solution for wet trades like bricklayers, plasterers, painters, and landscapers.
This is what Australia’s transition to renewable energy looks like, up close and personal. It’s the powerhouse cavern under construction, 250 metres below ground at Genex Power’s Kidston Pumped Hydro Power project in remote Far North Queensland.
Once complete, the cavern will be 80m long, 18m wide and 45m high. It will house the turbines capable of generating 250MW of rapid response renewable energy to power 100,000 homes. All powered by water from the dams above.
