Procurement and suppliers

TasNetworks has appointed GenusPlus Group Ltd (Genus) to deliver the works for Stage 1 of the North West Transmission Developments project. Genus is experienced in electricity and communications infrastructure projects within Tasmania and nationally.

Genus will be instrumental in designing and delivering Stage 1 of the development over a period of five years, with construction projected to begin in 2026, subject to conditions including a final investment decision, planning and environmental approvals, and the Australian Energy Regulator’s contingent project approval.

This appointment followed an extensive procurement process undertaken by TasNetworks to ensure the highest standard of probity, fairness and equal opportunity. 

The NWTD project will create many positive benefits and opportunities for Tasmanians, local communities and businesses of North West Tasmania. Genus, which already has established operations in Bridgewater and Spreyton, is committed to employing Tasmanians and engaging the services of Tasmanian businesses throughout the delivery of the project.

Tasmanian businesses are encouraged to register their interest through the Industry Capability Network portal  or Marinus Link portal.
