What is the Pilbara Underground Power Project? 

The Pilbara Underground Power Project (PUPP) is a partnership between the State Government’s Royalties for Regions initiative and Local Government, delivered by Horizon Power.

PUPP is providing cyclone-affected North West towns with a safe and reliable power supply by replacing ageing overhead electricity infrastructure with underground networks.  The project is intended to dramatically reduce the likelihood of power outages to essential services, regional residents and businesses during and immediately following adverse weather events.

More information about the project can be found in the fact sheets and web links below.
