Tender Description

⁠⁠⁠Borumba Pumped Hydro Project

The proposed Borumba Pumped Hydro Project is a long duration pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) system being developed at Lake Borumba and surrounding areas located in between Imbil, west of the Sunshine Coast, and Jimna in the Somerset region.

The site was identified more than 40 years ago in the 1980s as having significant potential for a pumped hydro scheme because of ideal topography, an existing reservoir, and geological stability. The proposed project site is on State land and is on the traditional country of the Kabi Kabi People.

Queensland Hydro is currently undertaking early and exploratory works onsite, technical investigations, project planning, design and community work. Our high-level program of work continues to focus on assessing the design to improve cost and schedule certainty and minimise any potential impacts on natural, cultural and community values.
