The Ngarluma Aboriginal Corporation will co-develop a massive 10 GW renewable energy hub in the Pilbara, WA.
The project will involve large-scale solar and wind farms, green hydrogen production and battery storage. It aims to power local industry and export clean energy.
Ngarluma traditional owners will have an equity share and be actively involved in planning and operations. This represents a new benchmark for Indigenous leadership in renewables.
The hub will displace coal and gas in the Pilbara, support thousands of construction jobs, and create new economic opportunities for Indigenous communities.
This project demonstrates the huge potential for renewable energy on traditional Aboriginal lands. It paves the way for greater Indigenous involvement in Australia's clean energy transition.
