A Line in the Sand – 750km of HVDC Overhead Line
If you think about some of the most exciting projects underway in the world today, then the Australia-Asia Powerlink (AAPL) project in Western Australia is high on the list. This is such an exciting opportunity on the renewables stage.
Groundline’s Advisory Group is excited to be providing early construction planning assistance to AAPL for the 750km HVD Coverhead connection that will connect the world’s largest solar farm to the subsea cable connection to Singapore.
This is a mammoth task, and we are proud to be working with SMEC to provide expert knowledge and advice on this groundbreaking project.
