The Liddell Power Station was commissioned in 1971, and for many years was
the backbone of the NSW electricity system. It was the first of its kind to be
located inland – far from the abundant saltwater supplies traditionally used for
cooling purposes. As a result, Lake Liddell was constructed for cooling and
water storage. Liddell power station produced around 6,000 GWh of electricity
or enough power for approximately 750,000 average Australian family homes.
After 50 years of operation, the Liddell Power Station closed in April 2023 with

hub that would combine grid-scale batteries, solar thermal storage, wind and
pumped hydro – Hunter Energy Hub.
