Energy
BG&E’s aim is to be at the forefront of engineering consultancies in responding to the impacts of climate change and to contribute to the delivery of projects that enhance the decarbonisation of the Australian economy.
We have provided design services for over 50 years to numerous major transport, resources, and building projects. Our skills and discipline areas are fundamental inputs to the energy sector.
We understand the scale and complexity of the challenge to achieve Australia’s targets of Net Zero by 2050, notably:
- The required expenditure.
- The scale of the investment in generation and transmission infrastructure.
- The complexity of the problem in arriving at the appropriate combination of generation options.
The generation and distribution of energy is, by its nature, being spread geographically, from the current relatively centralised system of coal-fired power stations. This has significant logistic and cost implications.
Our broad range of technical expertise adds value across the entire project life cycle in wind, solar, pumped hydro energy storage, and green hydrogen — as well as delivering the transmission lines that form the spine of our national distribution network.
