The Western Sydney Pumped Hydro Project is being developed by ZEN Energy on WaterNSW land at Lake Burragorang, approximately 24 km upstream of Warragamba Dam. The project proposes to repurpose a former coal washery site to create a pumped hydro energy storage facility capable of delivering approximately 1GW of dispatchable power. The facility would store excess renewable energy and release it during peak demand periods, helping support grid reliability and the transition away from coal-fired generation.
