How We Work

The projects that we seek to develop may have been identified as a result of our own corporate ‘prospecting’ activities or may have been brought to us by a third party group. Our development project plan is outlined below and is similar in each case:.

Development Project Plan

  • Site identification and execution of landholder agreement to secure site
  • Initial liaison with local community (and community action group if one exists) to ensure common understanding of objectives and proposed outcomes
  • Initial high level feasibility/viability analysis to identify significant issues which could preclude the granting of a permit or impede potential grid connectivity
  • Formal community and Council engagement to provide the maximum level of information and ongoing dialogue
  • Detailed consultancy studies and other necessary assessments to satisfy planning permit application requirements
  • Negotiation of grid connection with the network service provider for the area
  • Negotiation of power purchase agreement with an energy retailer
  • Following grant of planning permit, Future Energy may or may not be involved in the funding, construction and ongoing operation of the facility (project specific arrangements)
