coNEXA
is proud to announce a significant milestone in our continued support of the
Port of Newcastle’s Clean Energy Precinct (CEP). We have been selected as the
successful tenderer to lead the Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) for CEP
water services. The CEP is essential to the Port’s vision to establish itself
as a clean energy hub, enabling the production, storage, and export of green
hydrogen and green ammonia.
“We are
honoured to be selected for this pivotal role in the Clean Energy Precinct. Our
expertise in sustainable water infrastructure, combined with our collaborative
approach, make us the ideal partner to support this transformative project.
“Water
services for the CEP will build on our history of supplying sustainable water
to the Hunter through the Kooragang Island Water Scheme (KIWS). Over the past
ten years, this innovative scheme has delivered over 20 billion litres of
recycled water to local industry. We are strongly committed to enabling the
clean energy transition through ensuring reliable and efficient water
services” said coNEXA CEO, Kurt Dahl.
“We are
excited to partner with coNEXA as the nominated Water Services Provider for the
precinct,” said Craig Carmody, CEO Port of Newcastle. “Their
experience delivering complex and integrated infrastructure will ensure the
sustainable water services support our progression of the Precinct’s
development and help push us further towards hydrogen readiness.”
coNEXA
is focused on setting a benchmark for integrated water services across the
precinct. Our role will enable us to optimise the overall water strategy for
the CEP, including wastewater, tradewaste, recycled water, stormwater, and
potable water for offices and buildings.
Achieving
the CEP vision will require close collaboration with all stakeholders,
including industry partners, government bodies, and the community. The FEED
phase is critical to determining the infrastructure and services necessary to
advance the Clean Energy Precinct’s development.
