Reimagining Tarraleah's future
With more than eight decades faithfully producing clean, reliable energy for Tasmania, the scheme is reaching the end of its operational life.
We’re reimagining its future and proposing a full redevelopment to increase capacity and flexibility and deliver more energy for Tasmania.
The community can comment on our Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) which is now on public exhibition until 25 May. The EIS explains how the project could affect the environment, people and nearby communities, and how impacts will be managed.
Also on exhibition is the Development Application, which describes the project, where it will be built, and seeks approval from Central Highlands Council.
If you have questions or would like some help understanding what's in the documents and how to make a submission, please get in touch!

Business opportunities
We know that our projects can provide opportunities for suitably qualified and experienced suppliers, contractors, subcontractors, consultants and other service providers. This may either be directly or indirectly.
We are committed to ensuring Tasmanian and First Nations participation. Utilising the Industry Capability Network (ICN) Tasmania is a central part of our approach to achieve this.
We’ll also have targets for local content, participation and skills and training development when we get to the construction contract stage.
At this early stage in the procurement process, we are encouraging businesses to register with the Industry Capability Network (ICN) Tasmania and set up a company profile, to be ready for future opportunities on our major projects
