Perdaman Holdings Pty Limited (“Perdaman”) is pleased to announce that it has successfully been allocated land in the Maitland Strategic Industrial Area by the Western Australian Government.  The Maitland SIA is located approximately 24 km west of the town of Karratha and 39 km south of Dampier Port.

The allocation of land is an important initial step in Perdaman’s aspirations to construct a [100MW] solar power facility and associated transmission infrastructure as part of the company’s efforts to decarbonise its announced Urea Project on the Burrup Peninsula.

Development of the solar facility is strategically in line with Perdaman’s commitment to reach carbon neutrality by 2050 and will complement the 50MW solar facility already announced alongside Woodside.

Perdaman will now commence engaging with State and local authorities as well as local traditional owners about developing the project.

Perdaman Chairman Vikas Rambal said the land allocation demonstrates Perdaman’s clear plans for reducing its emissions.

“I am excited by the fact that so soon after announcing construction of the Perdaman Urea Project, we are already progressing to reducing its carbon footprint.”

“The development of a solar power facility of this scale will also provide flexibility for Perdaman to manufacture blue ammonia through its Urea facility to ensure Western Australia is at the forefront of driving a lower carbon future.”
