SUMMARY:ATS QLD - SNOWY 2.0 Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Click here for event flyer \nSnowy 2.0 will supercharge the Snowy Scheme’s existing hydro-electric generation and large-scale storage capabilities. The fast-start\, on-demand generation of pumped-hydro and Snowy 2.0’s massive storage capacity will be vital as more intermittent\, renewable energy sources such as wind and solar come online and coal-fired power stations retire. Snowy 2.0 will add 2\,000 megawatts of energy generation and provide 175 hours of storage for the National Electricity Market (NEM)\, enough to ensure the stability and reliability of the system during prolonged weather events\, such as wind or solar ‘droughts’. \nSnowy Hydro already plays a critical role in ensuring system stability and at times of peak demand\, we keep the lights on. Snowy 2.0 will enhance our existing capability and ensure that we can continue to provide increased stability and security to the energy market well into the future. \nMeet our Speakers:\n \nDave Evans\, Director of Engineering\, Snowy 2.0\, Snowy Hydro Limited \nDave Evans is the Director of Engineering on Snowy 2.0 and has been working on the project since its inception in April 2017. Prior to joining Snowy 2.0\, Dave was the Australia New Zealand Hydropower and Dams Manager at SMEC and has been involved as a designer and expert review in international hydropower projects in Australia\, Nepal\, Papua New Guinea and Kenya. \n  \nDamon Miller\, Associate Engineer – Dams & Hydro\, SMEC \nDamon Miller has worked on Snowy 2.0 since the project commenced with SMEC and Snowy Hydro in April 2017. Damon was the Design Manager for the Snowy 2.0 Feasibility Study and has been the Civil Design Lead for the Reference Design and Tendering for the 2000 MW pumped storage hydropower project. \n  \n  \nHelen Barbour-Bourne\, Associate Engineering Geologist – GHD \nHelen Barbour-Bourne is an Associate Engineering Geologist with GHD Sydney with a strong background in Project Managing and delivery of large scale complex and specialised site investigations from overseas projects at London Olympics 2012 and Crossrail\, to Oxley Highway to Kempsey and Woolgoolga to Ballina Pacific Highway Investigations. She has been Project Manager for the Snowy 2.0 Geotechnical Investigation Project since October 2017\, drawing together\, a specialist and skilled team of up to 80 people on site from across Australia\, New Zealand and Canada\, to deliver this amazing and challenging project. \n  \nDaniel Kamphorst\, Geotechnical Engineer – GHD \nDaniel Kamphorst is a Geotechnical Engineer\, responsible for managing the Snowy 2.0 Geotechnical Investigation program on site since October 2017\, more recently become the Site Investigation Manager. With a strong focus on highly specialised geological and geotechnical field work\, from PNG\, and across Australia. He has been critical to the execution of the complex scope required by the investigation which  includes three methods of insitu stress testing\, down hole geophysical logging and deep directional drilling\, essential to the delivery of the project.

SUMMARY:ATS VIC - Melbourne's Metro Tunnel: It begins to take shape
DESCRIPTION:The Metro Tunnel Project is a major Enhancement to Melbourne’s Rail Network\, it is being procured through a number of separate procurement packages the largest of which is the Tunnels and Stations Works Package. \nThe Tunnels and Stations Works Package includes 9km of new rail tunnels\, five underground stations\, station fit-out\, mechanical and electrical systems and specific maintenance services for the infrastructure delivered by the package and commercial opportunities at the new stations. Rail Projects Victoria (RPV) awarded this package to Cross Yarra Partnership (CYP) consortium comprising Lendlease Engineering\, John Holland\, Bouygues Construction and Capella Capital in December 2017. \nNow two years after contract award the team has made significant advances into constructing this city shaping project. Paul Thomas will provide an update on the progress of the works and the vast underground spaces already created under our bustling city. \nSpeaker\nPaul Thomas\nPaul Thomas is the Deputy Director for Rail Project Victoria’s Tunnels and Station Works Package. Paul is a Chartered Engineer and Chartered Professional Manager with 30yrs experience in the Civil Engineering industry. 25yrs spent in the tunnelling and underground construction discipline\, primarily in the design and construction of mass transit\, hydro-power and deep sewer projects\, in Hong Kong\, Singapore\, India and Australia. \nPaul has extensive experience in TBM tunnels\, drill and blast tunnels\, diaphragm walls\, deep piling and design/construction of major underground structures and design development/planning and delivery of major underground infrastructure\nPaul is RPV’s lead in the Engineering and Construction Delivery aspects of the project working closely with CYP.
