Hybrid Systems was awarded 44 out of 52 units in the first roll-out and 70 of 135 in the second.
This includes 34 that were part of Western Power’s rebuild and enhancement of the network of
following the devastation caused by Cyclone Seroja in regional WA in April 2021 (25 SPS) and
the Shackleton/Corrigin bushfire in February 2022 (9 SPS).
Hybrid Systems, an award-winning, market leader in Stand-Alone Power Systems (SPS) has
been an integral supplier for the Western Power SPS program since 2018.
The rising demand of SPS resulted in Hybrid Systems opening a brand new 16,000 square
meter purpose-built workshop and office facility in the Perth Airport Industrial Precinct, to house
a rapidly growing workforce, with a dedicated focus on the design and construction of
sophisticated SPS and to increase its production capacity to meet growing demand.
Hybrid Systems has designed, manufactured, and installed over 80 operational remote SPS
sites and is close to reaching a significant installation milestone of 100 operational SPS in the
coming months.
With the addition of these 82 SPS units with Western Power, Hybrid System’s total is now 196,
cementing it as the largest deployment of SPS units in the world.
This latest SPS commitment by Western Power, has directly resulted in approximately 21
additional WA staff employed by Hybrid Systems Australia, totalling 61 full time staff for the
duration of the project. This includes an anticipated 10 apprentices to be specifically engaged in
this latest round.
Recently recognised for Stand Alone Power Systems in the Innovation category at the National
Infrastructure Awards, the Hybrid System’s designed SPS units utilise world-class componentry,
with all design, manufacturing, assembly, installation, commissioning, operating & maintenance
occurring in-house and locally in Perth, Western Australia.
