Our Projects.
Altura Group are developing a portfolio of pumped storage hydro projects that support the growing supply of renewable resources into the Australian energy market. Our projects are designed to provide energy to the national electricity grid, delivering energy at the times and locations it is needed most. At Altura Group, how we work is just as important as what we do. We value and respect our relationships with stakeholders and consider these to be central in all we do, working together to create a dialogue through the project planning phase, refining our projects that seek to accommodate key issues in a transparent way. Throughout project construction and the life of the project, our relationships with our stakeholders remain our first priority.
Goat Hill
GOAT HILL – AN OVERVIEW
The Goat Hill Project is a “closed loop” inland pumped storage hydro project positioned at Lincoln Gap approximately 12km west of Port Augusta. With a capacity of up to 250 MW and 8 hours of storage. The Goat Hill Project is well positioned to provide reliable and affordable energy storage and firm, flexible power into South Australia.
GOAT HILL PUMPED STORAGE HYDRO BENEFITS
The project will provide significant benefits at local, regional and state levels both directly and indirectly:
- A new entrant in the South Australian power sector.
- Direct economic benefits, particularly during construction, leveraging the strength of South Australia’s civil contracting industry.
- Significant contribution to resolve energy security and reliability challenges, representing the lowest cost grid scale energy storage.
- Enable South Australia to increase use of wind and solar, resulting in further local investment and strengthening broader economy, with potential to increase energy flows into Eastern States.
- Uses existing infrastructure (275kV network near Davenport; & SA Water Morgan Whyalla Pipeline).
- Represents significant investment to the South Australian economy.
