Source. Packages, scopes, location, scale, platform and contact from the project’s public Gateway by ICN page. EOI dates sit behind Gateway login; the 29 February 2028 close date is as reported by SEN, and no close time is published. The countdown runs to the start of that day, Queensland time.
The works include ongoing security operations as well as the supply and installation of fencing, access control, surveillance, lighting and related infrastructure.
The first package for security operation covers monitoring of surveillance equipment at the Wooderson Solar Farm and responding to issues identified on site.
The second, package is for fencing and security and covers the physical and electronic security infrastructure required at the project site, including security fencing, gates, access control systems, surveillance equipment, lighting and other associated security infrastructure.
The work packages are being procured through the same ICN Gateway project but represent separate scopes. The fencing and security package is focused on the supply and installation of the site’s security infrastructure, while the security operations package concerns monitoring and response once the surveillance systems are operational.
Wooderson Solar Farm is a proposed renewable energy development at Mount Alma in Central Queensland, approximately 40km south-west of Gladstone and 20km west of Calliope. The project is being delivered by Central Queensland Power and is designed to supply firmed renewable electricity to the National Electricity Market.
The proposed development includes approximately 980000 solar photovoltaic modules with up to 450MW generating capacity and a 450MW DC-coupled battery energy storage system with up to 3600MWh of storage.
Associated infrastructure includes a substation, switching yard, 275kV overhead transmission connection, overhead and underground electrical reticulation, internal access tracks, fencing, laydown areas and an operations and maintenance facility. Temporary construction facilities will include a construction compound.
Security infrastructure extends across this large and complex renewable energy site and includes the physical perimeter, access control, surveillance and lighting required to support site security. The operational package also provides for monitoring of the surveillance infrastructure and response to issues identified on site.
Procurement of the lead construction contractor is being undertaken in late 2026, with construction anticipated to commence in the first quarter of 2028 and project completion targeted for December 2030.
