The project includes rebuilding and expanding the existing Beaconsfield West Substation, a key component of TransGrid’s high-voltage network supplying power to Sydney’s inner metropolitan area and central business district.“The Beaconsfield West Substation win comes off the back of our significant involvement on the Western 500-kilovolt project – one of TransGrid’s largest capital works projects,” UGL managing director Richard Leupen said.Project works at the Beaconsfield West Substation project started in late April with a completion date expected in the fourth quarter of 2012.Leupen said that since 2009, UGL’s Infrastructure business had secured more than $600 million of new power, water, transport and communications infrastructure contracts.
