Marmadua Energy Park

About The Project

Marmadua Energy Park is a proposed renewable energy project located north of Kumbarilla State Forest, approximately 22 kilometres from Tara and 37 kilometres from Dalby in Queensland’s Western Downs region.

The project has the potential to generate up to 700MW of renewable energy, enough to power approximately 480,000 homes. It may also include a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) to support a reliable electricity network.

Marmadua Energy Park is currently progressing through planning, environmental assessment and community consultation processes that will help inform the project’s design and future approvals.

Working With The Community

We understand that renewable energy projects can bring both opportunities and change for local communities.

That’s why we are committed to early, transparent and meaningful engagement with landholders, neighbours, Traditional Owners, local businesses, community groups and government stakeholders throughout the planning process.

Community feedback helps inform project planning and identify opportunities to deliver lasting benefits for the region.
