Braemar Power Station is a complex of natural gas and coal seam gas fired combined-cycle power stations near Dalby in the Darling Downs region of Queensland, Australia.

Braemar-1

Braemar-1 is a 502 MW open-cycle natural gas turbine plant located 35 kilometres (22 mi) south west of Dalby, adjacent to the Adjacent Kogan Creek Power Station, Queensland – New South Wales high voltage transmission interconnector and Power Link 320/274 kV substation.[1][2] It is supplied from the Tipton West coal seam gas fields, with the 150-kilometre (93 mi) pipeline between Condamine and Braemar, which is used exclusively to supply the Braemar Power Station.[1][3]

The power station was developed by ERM Power and was built by Alstom.[2][4] It is equipped by three Alstom's 150 MW GT13E2 gas turbines.[4] The power station cost A$545 million. It was completed in 2006 and is anticipated to operate until 2036. ERM Power sold the plant to Alinta Energy in 2008.[2]

Braemar-2

Braemar-2 is a 450 MW open-cycle natural gas turbine plant adjacent to the Braemar-1 power station. The power station was developed by ERM Power and was built by Alstom.[4][5] It supplies peak demand power and it is equipped by three Alstom's 150 MW GT13E2 gas turbines.[4] The power station cost A$546 million.[5][6] Gas for this power station is sourced from the Stratheden field at Daandine.[7]

Braemar-2 began operating on 12 June 2009 and was officially opened on 25 August 2009.[5][6][8] It is Queensland's second-largest gas-fired power station.[6][8] On the 4 July 2011, Braemar 2 became the property of Arrow Energy.[5][6] The plant is comprised of three 150 MW turbines.[8]

Braemar-3

Braemer 3 is expected to by operational be 2015 and cost $530 million to build.[9]
