Cape Byron Management purchased the Broadwater power station in November 2013 and has continued to implement a range of efficiency, reliability and environmental improvements. Since taking over, the power station’s annual renewable energy generation has increased by more than 20% at Broadwater.

The 38 MW biomass power station at Broadwater produces clean, renewable electricity from mostly sugar cane milling waste, along with certain types of wood residues and energy crops, commonly referred to as ‘biomass’ fuel.
