FPR Energy – Demonstration Plant Tour, Newcastle

Event type: Site Visit

  • Fri 30, Oct - 09:00am - 05:00pm
  • Return transport: ICC Sydney → FPR Energy, Newcastle

Depart at 9:00 am from ICC Sydney, returning 5:00 pm 

Spend a day at FPR Energy’s demonstration plant and see next-generation zero carbon heat and energy storage in operation. FPR’s particle-based concentrated solar thermal (CST) platform delivers industrial grade heat, while its electric thermal energy storage system (E-TES) system will store energy as heat for dispatch as high-grade steam on demand – a combination aimed squarely at decarbonising mining and heavy industry. FPR counts CSIRO, RFC Ambrian and Osaka Gas among its founding shareholders.

The Newcastle site is where the technology is proven at scale, and this visit is a rare chance to see a demonstration of the technology and speak with the people building it.

Why attend?

  • For Mining, Industrial & Energy Companies: See how FPR’s unique particle-based CST and E-TES systems can supply reliable, low-emissions process heat and firmed power – and where it fits in your decarbonisation pathway.
  • For Investors: Meet the FPR team and assess the technology, the demonstration milestones and the commercial trajectory of the company.
  • For Strategic Partners: Explore deployment, offtake and partnership opportunities alongside an existing base of strategic industrial backers.

 

What to expect

  • A guided tour of the CST demonstration plant.
  • A technical briefing and open Q&A with FPR’s leadership and engineers.
  • Light lunch on site.
  • Return transport from ICC Sydney. Please allow a full day given the Newcastle travel.

Places are limited. Register your interest by 9 October 2026
