CopperString

The CopperString project is a proposal to construct a transmission line from Woodstock (south of Townsville) to Dajarra Road near Cloncurry in NW Queensland.

The proposed transmission line will provide major energy users in the NW Mineral Province with access to the National Electricity Market, significantly improving the supply and reliability of electricity to the region.  The CoopperString project will also provide opportunities for renewable energy projects along the proposed transmission line to supply clean energy to the National Electricity Market.

The project is expected to have a total financing requirement of AU$1.5billion.
