Darling Downs is a gas fired combined cycle gas turbine power station and is the largest of its type in Australia.[1] It is powered by three 120 MW GE Frame 9E gas turbines and one 270 MW steam turbine, which generate a total of 630 MW of electricity.[2] A 205 kilometre pipeline transports the gas to the station from gas fields near Wallumbilla.[2] The power station uses less than 3% of the water that a traditional coal powered power station does by utilising air-cooled technology.[3][4]
Origin Energy developed the power station and the construction costs for the project were $780 million.[4] Darling Downs entered commercial operation in July 2010.[1] and was officially opened on the 5 November 2010 by Premier Anna Bligh.[3]
