Evo Energy Technologies is delivering a major biogas-to-energy installation at the Woodman Point Wastewater Recovery and Reuse Facility in Western Australia. As part of the broader plant upgrade, three large-scale combined heat and power units will convert biogas generated on-site into dependable, low-carbon electricity to support continuous plant operations at one of Australia’s largest wastewater facilities.
As part of the Woodman Point WRRF upgrade, Evo Energy Technologies will supply and commission three high-capacity biogas-fired CHP units, along with a dedicated blackstart diesel system and associated oil storage infrastructure to ensure operational resilience.
Each CHP unit is housed within a purpose-built container measuring 17.2 metres in length, 4.5 metres in width and 3.6 metres in height. These substantial enclosures represent some of the largest containerised energy systems deployed in Australian wastewater infrastructure. Designed for outdoor installation, the units are factory assembled and performance-tested prior to shipment, reducing on-site installation risk and streamlining commissioning.
Together, the three CHP systems will generate renewable electricity from biogas produced during wastewater treatment, supplying sustainable power directly to the facility. The inclusion of a blackstart diesel system enables the plant to restart independently in the event of a grid interruption, reinforcing energy security for this critical piece of infrastructure.
The Woodman Point installation highlights the role of advanced CHP technology in strengthening energy resilience, reducing grid reliance and maximising the value of biogas resources within large-scale wastewater treatment operations.
