Converting heat waste into energy used for mine cooling

Key outcomes

• Cost savings of $2.7 million per annum
• Total project value $5.5 million
• 18 month payback period
• Saves 5000 tonnes of CO2 per annum

The ST Barbara mine in Leonora, Western Australia, had multiple gas generators which were producing heat waste. ETS were engaged to design and install an exhaust system which captures that waste heat and turns it into 5.6MW of additional capacity. The mine uses this additional capacity for its underground cooling system which means that traditional and much more expensive methods of expanding the cooling capacity were no longer required.

Collins Square's Trigeneration Energy System by Optimal Group

Key Outcomes

• 5 star NABERS efficiency rating

• Best practice commercial green building design

• $2 billion project, largest of its kind in Australia.

• Use of Capstone Microturbine technology

When the Walker Corporation started planning the new Collins Square development they decided it should lead the way in best practice commercial building green design and efficiency.
 
The Optimal Group helped them achieve this, along with exceeding the 5 star NABERS rating. The cornerstone of this plan was a modern embedded trigeneration system where each of the 5 towers making up Collins Square could generate part of its own electrical demand using natural gas.

Solar Glass - The Future Of Building Materials

Key outcomes 

• Project value $70k
• Generates up to 4.32 kW of clean energy
• Reduces grid energy and provides certainty around peak demand reduction

Problem Summary 
Scotch College is an independent Presbyterian day and boarding school for boys, located in Hawthorn, an inner-eastern suburb of Melbourne. The College raised $40m to build a new Sciences facility aimed to equip students with leading edge skills and knowledge in a variety of learning spaces. During design, the architects (Cox Architects) were on the lookout for opportunities to improve building performance using innovative building materials. A particularly challenging area was the teaching space on the roof which needed to provide both shelter and natural light.
