Following February’s announcements that Clarke Energy had secured two major projects with Territory Generation in the Northern Territory of Australia, this week saw the official Owen Springs ground breaking ceremony. The Owen Springs power station will include 10 of GE’s Jenbacher J624 gas engines with the ability to generate in excess of 41MW of electricity. The Owen Springs and Tennant Creek projects are part of a A$100m electricity cost reduction drive, spearheaded by the Northern Territory Government of Australia.
