Description

SOMEVA PTY LTD is inviting expressions of interest for the provision of crane and lifting equipment services to support the Coonerang Wind Farm and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project. Located approximately 15 kilometres south of Cooma in the Snowy-Monaro region of New South Wales, this 264 MW renewable energy development requires specialized heavy lifting capabilities to facilitate large-scale construction activities. The scope of work encompasses the provision of cranes and certified operators capable of turbine installation at hub heights reaching up to 180 metres. Additionally, the project requires the supply of auxiliary lifting and access equipment, including telehandlers, forklifts, and elevated work platforms (EWP). Prospective bidders should possess significant experience in large-scale infrastructure projects, specifically within the renewable energy sector, and demonstrate the capacity to manage complex lifting operations. While SOMEVA PTY LTD is managing the initial expression of interest phase through the ICN Gateway until December 30, 2026, final procurement will be conducted by the project's main contractors once they are appointed. Construction is currently scheduled to commence in late 2028, subject to project approval. This opportunity is intended to identify qualified suppliers who will be connected with main contractors to support the construction of wind turbines, substations, and associated battery infrastructure.
