Zenith Energy’s Executive Chairman, Doug Walker, and Managing Director and CEO, Hamish Moffat, recently held a productive meeting with Hon. Reece Whitby MLA, Minister for Energy, Environment, and Climate Action. Discussions centred around Zenith Energy’s role as a leading enabler of the energy transition and achieving Net Zero emissions in the markets where we operate – mining and urban microgrids. In the past 18 months, Zenith has contracted and commenced construction of the most of Western Australia’s high renewable energy fraction hybrid power solutions for remote off-grid mines and grid-connected urban microgrids in Western Australia’s South West Interconnected System (SWIS).

Zenith has also been collaborating with stakeholders in WA’s Goldfields on development of a power solution to provide the region with affordable energy security and a fast track to Net Zero. These outcomes align with the State’s intent to avoid the recurrence of protracted blackouts in Kalgoorlie experienced earlier this year, and to introduce more renewable energy, particularly from the Northern Goldfields into the SWIS.

Mr. Moffat, Managing Director and CEO of Zenith, said the development aims to deliver Traditional Owners meaningful participation in the Energy Transition; for miners more affordable and sustainable renewable energy; and for the region and state an economic boost by activating land for downstream processing of critical and battery minerals.

PoweringWA, which was recently set-up within Energy Policy WA are seeking support from Commonwealth programs such the Capacity Investment Scheme (CIS) and Rewiring the Nation to facilitate a more renewable and reliable power system for the Goldfields.
