Our background

Deep roots in the electricity supply industry

Our senior engineers average over 25 years of individual experience, drawn directly from careers in the Electricity Supply Industry. As a team, we’ve been delivering power system designs for more than 15 years across Queensland’s most demanding environments.

We work across the Bowen Basin and Mt Isa mining regions — environments that demand precision, reliability, and engineers who understand the full system context.

  • Design from first principles
    Full line design developed from engineering fundamentals, not just templates.
  • Client standards application
    Experienced applying utility and mining client standards directly to project work.
  • Queensland focus
    Specialist knowledge of Queensland’s electricity network, terrain, and industry requirements.
  • Mining reticulation
    Deep experience in Bowen Basin and Mt Isa mining power infrastructure.
Standards proficiency

We know the standards inside out

All staff are fully versed in the key Australian standards governing overhead line design and loading.

AS/NZS 7000
Overhead line design — bare overhead conductors. The primary Australian standard for HV transmission line design.
AS 1170
Structural loading standard. Applied to wind, ice and combined load cases for line structure design.
Software

Industry-leading design tools

Our team is highly proficient in the software used by major utilities and engineering consultancies worldwide.

PLS-CADD
Transmission line layout design and structure spotting up to 330kV.
PLS-POLE
Single pole structural analysis and checking for wood, concrete and steel.
PLS-TOWER
Lattice tower structural analysis for high voltage transmission structures.
