BACKGROUND
UON were engaged to design, supply, install, test and commission a turnkey 6 MW power station including remote monitoring, enabling development of a new underground mine. This was to be a BOOM operation (Build, Own, Operate and Manage) where the power station would be installed without the capital expenditure associated with purchasing the infrastructure.
