Substation Expansion for BESS Site
Scope of Work: Substation steel package for a Battery Energy Storage System expansion
Key Elements: Two 24 m lattice towers and suspension beams, fabricated, galvanised, pre-assembled and installed within eight weeks
Project Details
DWW Engineering recently delivered a full substation steel package for a site in Central Queensland to expand the substation for a BESS (battery energy storage system) project. The project included the fabrication, galvanising, assembly, delivery and installation of two 24 metre lattice towers, and two suspension beams – all fabricated to exact tolerances. DWW Engineering completed the entire fabrication and assembly process for this project in a mere eight weeks, as the client was working within a tight timeframe.
To ensure a perfect fit on-site, the entire structure was pre-assembled in our Darra workshop. This approach confirmed alignment with foundation bolts and eliminated the need for on-site rework. Once assembled, the components were delivered fully assembled and installed on site by our team.
