Stage one of the Pioneer-Burdekin pumped hydro storage project, announced on September 28, is estimated to be completed in 2032, with the final stage operational by 2035. Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk made the announcement in her State of the State speech in which she introduced Queensland's 10-year energy plan. The facility in Pioneer Creek will be the largest pumped hydro energy storage project in the world with 5 gigawatts (GW) of 24-hour storage when complete.Â
