We’re proud to be delivering critical electrical infrastructure upgrades to the Terminal Services Building (TSB) at Brisbane Airport, the primary hub supplying high-voltage power and other essential services to the Domestic Terminal building. Brisbane Airport is investing in the replacement and upgrade of this vital infrastructure to improve reliability, accommodate future expansion, and meet increasing power demand.
Pensar’s scope includes the conversion of existing plant areas into new low-voltage switchrooms and transformer rooms, installation of a new 11kV high-voltage switchboard, main switchboards and associated distribution boards, and new transformers. The works also extend to HVAC upgrades, fire detection and suppression systems, hydraulic modifications, structural alterations, and integration of communications, SCADA and central services systems. What makes this project particularly complex is the environment we’re working in. Brisbane Airport doesn’t stop for construction. Every stage, from cutovers to commissioning, are being carefully sequenced to keep operations running uninterrupted, with one transformer always remaining in service and temporary generation support planned during high-voltage transitions.
Projects like this reflect Pensar’s ability to deliver complex, high-voltage infrastructure within live operational environments, where meticulous planning and staged commissioning are essential in keeping critical services running throughout.
