Tender OverviewBackgroundNetwork support stand-alone-power systems (SAPS) are being trialled for some of our remote and fringe of grid customers. SAPS include renewable power generation (mainly solar PV) and battery storage with back-up diesel generation. Advances in battery management systems and reductions in the cost of batteries means that SAPS are becoming more economically viable when compared to the remote network supply of poles and wires. SAPS can improve customer experiences, particularly for remote customers supplied with electricity over long distances, while also providing opportunity to lower the cost of supply in future. The network is currently trialling network support SAPS as an alternative for individual customers supplied by long SWER lines and exploring the long-term opportunities SAPS may provide for our customers. One current trial is at Bustard Head lighthouse an historic building located in a hard to access section of our network near Gladstone in Central Queensland. The existing line is 24 km long and runs through national park with thick vegetation and difficult terrain that is often impassable in wet weather or high tides. We are also trialling network support SAPS to supply two cattle stations in Western Queensland. These customers are located near Mt Isa in a unique arrangement where they are supplied by a SWER line that is in turn connected to networks run by two separate third parties Supplier’s Scope of WorkErgon Energy Network (Ergon Energy) are looking to install further SAPS to supply individual customers or small groups of customers/connections with low loads in remote and isolated locations across parts of Queensland. In the first instance we are planning a further five sites to expand the critical learnings and develop preliminary SAPS standardisation criteria to roll out further SAPS in future. Our initial focus is within North West (x 4) and Central Queensland (x 1). These sites are only proposed at this point and relevant approvals are currently being obtained. The location of these sites may change if approvals cannot be obtained. The requirement is to
