Salini Impregilo becomes Webuild: bigger, stronger and ready to serve the Nation

Salini Impregilo is changing its name to Webuild, with the message “bigger, stronger and ready to serve the nation” to accompany a publicity campaign that begins in Italy’s major newspapers and news websites. It also comes on the day that Salini Impregilo shareholders meet at their annual assembly to approve the new name of a Group that is ready to contribute to the revival of the Italian economy within the context of an infrastructure investment plan capable of creating thousands of jobs. The launch of the Company’s new name, which will soon be online at www.webuildgroup.com and on social media channels with the account name Webuild, signals the latest step in the Group’s evolution, becoming ever more global with a strong base in Italy. It is a process of growth for the Company under the management and coordination of Salini Costruttori SpA within the context of Progetto Italia (Project Italy), and also thanks to the support of CDP Equity SpA and the country’s main financial institutions (UniCredit, Intesa Sanpaolo, Banco Popolare BPM) and investors who believe in the project.

QRC welcomes AGL's Cooper Gap Wind Farm Completion

The Queensland Resources Council has welcomed the completion of AGL’s Cooper Gap Wind Farm with a full capacity of 453 megawatts or the equivalent renewable energy to power 264,000 homes.

QRC Chief Executive Ian Macfarlane said the 123 wind turbine farm was a leading example of Queensland’s co-existence model.

“Queensland can thank the coal seam gas industry for investing more than a billion dollars in upgrading the transmission infrastructure across the Darling Downs which enabled a whole second wave of renewable investment to follow behind the gas industry,” Mr Macfarlane said.

“The addition of AGL’s Cooper Gap Wind Farm is another step in making Queensland the energy superpower of Australia. Queensland should make full use of its abundance of energy resources, ranging from coal, to gas, to hydro and renewables.

“Queensland is home to the nation’s youngest and most efficient coal-fired power fleet. Our extra coal-fired electricity flows across the border and keeps the lights on in the southern states.

“By adding Coopers Gap to the mix, Queensland will further consolidate its role as a heavy lifter in the National Electricity Market.

“We hope to see even more investment in the full range of energy resources, because the bottom line is that Queensland industry and Queensland homes need reliable power around the clock, at a price they can afford.”
