"Queensland government-owned generation company CS Energy is using coal plant
byproducts to, quite literally, build a bridge between its traditional fossil
fuelled power stations and its new renewable energy assets.
The company revealed on Monday that fly ash from Callide Power Station has been
used in the concrete to build the 80-metre Yellow Creek Bridge that will
deliver turbine components to its Lotus Creek Wind Farm.
“The 80-metre bridge is engineered to carry turbine components weighing more
than 100 tonnes, connecting both sides of the site and improving access for
local landowners,” CS Energy said in a LinkedIn post.
“It’s a simple idea with real impact: smart engineering, efficient use of
resources, and infrastructure that supports Queensland’s energy future!”"
