The Kidston Pumped Hydro Energy Project on Ewamian Country, 280 km north-west of Townsville, helps to answer that question. Since 2018, Holcim has been working with McConnell Dowell and John Holland JV to convert two pits from the decommissioned Kidston Gold Mine to create a pumped hydro power project – a world first. And we’re doing this in the most circular way possible, with 100% recycled aggregates in all supplied concrete.
