The Smithfield Open Cycle Gas Turbine (OCGT) is a 123 MW gas peaker located in Western Sydney, NSW. It is a core asset in Iberdrola Australia's portfolio of fast-start firming assets, enabling us to manage intermittency risks associated with our large and growing renewable energy fleet.

Smithfield OCGT has a fifteen minute start time, enabling the asset to capture high electricity price events. As a peaking generator, Smithfield OCGT operates with very low capacity utilisation, estimated at 2-8% per annum. 

Smithfield OCGT was acquired by Iberdrola Australia in May 2019.
