Former BHP Steelworks land at Mayfield is being earmarked for development into a logistics precinct.
This month's state budget will include $115 million towards the construction of the precinct on 52 hectares of former BHP Intertrade land adjacent to Industrial Drive.
It will become a storage hub for renewables infrastructure such as wind turbines and transformers before they are transported to energy projects across the state's north west including the Hunter Transmission Project and the Hunter Central Coast REZ.
Minister for Energy and Climate Change, Penny Sharpe will announce the project in Newcastle today (Thursday 12 June, 2025).
