Our staff and contractors work in diverse environments including the coast, hinterland, rainforest, and desert.

Powerlink and the environment

We take environmental matters seriously, and have rigorous processes in place to ensure we minimise any environmental impacts. All construction and maintenance activities are managed in accordance with our Environmental Management System, the Queensland Electrical Supply Industry Code of Practice – Maintenance of Electricity Corridors and Infrastructure (QESI) and our Wet Tropics Management Authority Permit, where applicable.

We’ve also undertaken a number of sustainability initiatives at our head office in Virginia.
