LMWQCC is the main wastewater treatment plant for the ACT and the largest inland treatment facility in Australia. Originally built in the 1970’s this important piece of infrastructure and its original power assets had come to the end of life.

Despite replacing every High Voltage Asset on the site through meticulous planning and detailed commissioning regime our team was able to complete the strategically staged shutdown program without any disruptions to the plants operations.
