Stage 2 comprises: 

•  a new four-lane bridge over the Hawkesbury River

• road widening improvements through North Richmond

• intersection improvements

• new bypass south of Richmond town centre, and

• improved pedestrian and bicycle user connections.  

Stage Two was previously split into Stage 2A and Stage 2B, with the latter contingent on further funding. Funding has now been made available for the delivery of Stage Two in full.

The Queensland Government is delivering a new hospital on a site at the current Baillie Henderson campus. The full scope of the project includes:

• delivery of a new hospital with 538 overnight beds, including 118 additional beds
• an 84-bed acute mental health facility
• a multi-storey car park
• emergency department treatment spaces
• medical imaging, pharmacy and pathology services, and
• a new cancer care centre.

The Queensland Government announced an updated masterplan was finalised for the project as part of its Hospital Rescue Plan. The masterplan outlines a staged delivery approach for the project’s full scope; however, no further details are publicly available.

The Bungaban Renewable Energy Project comprises a 1.4 gigawatt wind farm and a 350 megawatt / 1.4 gigawatt battery. The project would form part of the South Queensland Renewable Energy Hub. 

The project is to be located in the Western Downs and Banana Shire regions of Queensland, approximately 40 kilometres nort-east of Wandoan and 60 kilometres south-west of Taroom.

Associated infrastructure to be delivered as part of the project includes access tracks, transmission lines, and quarries.

RWE Renewables has proposed the development of the Theodore Wind Farm, a 1.1 GW wind farm that would be located 170 kilometres south of Rockhampton.

The project would include:

• 170 turbines
• a battery facility with a dispatch capacity of 240 megawatts. The project proponent has not announced the battery's duration
• four substations, and
• a potential for a future solar facility to be installed on site.

The first stage of the proposed Banana Range Wind Farm would comprise 38 wind turbines providing 230 megawatts (MW) of generation capacity. The proposed Stage Two of the project is an additional 37 turbines for a total capacity of 222 MW. If approved, the total project would provide a total generation capacity of 452 MW. The project also has planning approval for a grid-scale battery.

The project's site is located approximately 120 kilometres south-west of Gladstone in Queensland's proposed Central Renewable Energy Zone.

The Cellars Hill Wind Farm is a proposed 350-megawatt wind farm, located in the Central Highlands, Tasmania. The project will potentially include a battery energy storage system, switchyard and substation to facilitate connection into the existing 220-kilovolt transmission line that runs through the site.

ACEN Australia proposes to develop the Birriwa Solar Farm and Battery Project. The project consists of a 600-megawatt (MW) solar farm and a centralised or a direct current (DC)-coupled battery energy storage system (BESS) with a capacity of 900 MW / 2.8 GWh. 

The project will be located in Birriwa, approximately 19 kilometres south-east of Dunedoo, in the Mid-Western Regional Council local government area, within the Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone (REZ).

The project will connect to the National Electricity Market via the proposed Central-West Orana REZ Merotherie Energy Hub being developed by EnergyCo.

The proposed Baldon Wind Farm is a 1.4 gigawatt wind farm being developed by Goldwind Australia, to be located 15 kilometres north of Moulamein, in the south-west of NSW. The project site spans the Murray River and Hay Shire Council areas and is adjacent to the Edward River Council to the east, and is situated within the South-West Renewable Energy Zone (SWREZ).

The project is expected to be constructed in two stages. Stage One will include the delivery of 45 wind turbines and Stage Two will include the delivery of 135 wind turbines. The project will also include a Battery Energy Storage System of approximately 200 megawatts / 400 megawatt hours.

The project would connect to an existing 220kV power line, which runs through the centre of the site, and which will be upgraded with the delivery of Project EnergyConnect.
