The Deer Park Terminal Station (DPTS) project was developed to address increasing demand across Victoria’s electricity network and alleviate constraints caused by existing and projected customer load growth within the underlying sub-transmission and distribution network.
To support establishment of the terminal station and enable future network capacity, temporary deviation of the existing KTS – GTS No.2 220kV Power Line was required.
The project required new transmission infrastructure to be delivered within an active construction environment while coordinating multiple interfaces and concurrent work scopes.
Genus was engaged to assemble and erect two new 220kV Double Circuit Strain Towers at the Deer Park Terminal Station.
A specialised team was mobilised from Western Australia to Victoria, completing:
The entire scope was delivered within 8 days.
The accelerated delivery programme required close coordination and rapid mobilisation to support project timelines.
Genus delivered installation works associated with the new transmission infrastructure at DPTS.
The scope includes:
Disciplines employed included:
The works were completed within a highly active construction environment with multiple concurrent work fronts and interfaces.
Genus successfully delivered the project while establishing new supplier relationships to support the scope.
Despite the complexity of working within an active construction site with multiple concurrent work packages, the team completed the project without any health, safety, environmental or quality issues.
The completed infrastructure supports establishment of the Deer Park Terminal Station and future network capacity growth across Victoria.
