The Pacific Energy owned Gwalia Power Station, near Leonora in Western Australia, has been powering the Gwalia Gold Mine since 2007.
The station utilises a combination of high efficiency gas generators and Pacific Energy specification dual fuel generators featuring our proprietary dual fuel technology.
Our dual fuel technology mitigates fuel supply interruption risks and ensures that in the event of a utility gas supply interruption the power station is capable of powering the mine site essential loads via the dual fuel engines capability to also operate on diesel only.
