Snowtown BESS – Planning and Approvals
Explore the planning and approvals process for Snowtown BESS.
Planning Process
The project is seeking to obtain an Associated Infrastructure Licence under the Hydrogen and Renewable Energy Act 2023.
As part of the licence application process, Tilt Renewables prepared a draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Statement of Environmental Objectives (SEO). Stakeholder consultation on the draft reports was conducted in August 2025.
We considered the feedback received and made adjustments where possible. The final Environmental Impact Report and Statement of Environmental Objectives were then submitted to the Department of Energy and Mining (DEM) for assessment.
The Department of Energy and Mining is now undertaking public consultation on the reports submitted. This feedback will be considered in their final assessment of the reports.
Providing Feedback
The Department of Energy and Mining is currently inviting public feedback on the Environmental Impact Report and Statement of Environmental Objectives. The documents are on public exhibition from November 15 until January 9.
