Braemar Power Station is a 502 MW open-cycle natural gas turbine plant located 35 km south west of Dalby in the Darling Downs region of Queensland, Australia. Located adjacent to Queensland's coal seam gas fields, with a dedicated pipeline to nearby gas fields it provides both peak and shoulder power. Alinta Energy also owns the 150 km gas pipeline between Condamine and Braemar, which is used exclusively to supply the Braemar Power Station.[1]
The station was commissioned in 2006. It was built by ERM Power. Gas is sourced from the Tipton West coal seam gas fields.[2]
Braemar 2 Power Station
A second 450 MW gas-fired generator lies adjacent to the first power station and was constructed by ERM Power. It began operating on 12 June 2009 and is Queensland's second-largest gas-fired power station.[3][4] It cost $546 million to build.[3]
On the 4 July 2011, Braemar 2 became the property of Arrow Energy. The plant is comprised of three 150 MW turbines.[4] It supplies peak demand power. Gas for this power station is sourced from the Stratheden field at Daandine.[5]
Braemar 3 Power Station
Braemer 3 is expected to by operational be 2015 and cost $530 million to build.[6]
Braemar 4 Power Station
ERM Power is considering the development of Braemer 4, indicating it will proceed with its development when market conditions improve.[6]
