    A transmission line that connects the Boodarie SIA and Port Hedland with proposed renewable generation projects further east near the Great Sandy Desert.

Pilbara Energy Transition Plan

The State Government is embracing the growing momentum of decarbonisation and is committed to taking responsible, effective, and enduring action to transform the Pilbara into a renewable powerhouse and future-proof our economy, communities, and environment.

Acknowledged as a major global hub for mineral and energy resources, the Pilbara drives the State's economy, contributing nearly 20 per cent of Western Australia's total economic output. Additionally, the Pilbara is renowned for its environmental and cultural significance, boasting one of the largest and most diverse collections of rock art worldwide.
