Hydro Tasmania generates approximately 10,000 gigawatt hours (GWh) of electricity annually, principally from an integrated hydro-power scheme located in high rainfall areas in the state of Tasmania, Australia. The scheme consists of 28 power stations, numerous lakes and over 50 large dams.
Natural gas supplements hydro generation from the Bell Bay Power Station, Tasmania.
We supply renewable energy and peak power the National Electricity Market (NEM), firstly to Tasmania, and exporting through Basslink, the undersea interconnector which runs under Bass Strait.
Hydro Tasmania is also 50% owner of wind farms in Tasmania, South Australia and Asia through a joint venture with CLP Power Asia Ltd, Roaring 40s.
