Newcastle Logistics Precinct

About the project

We're creating the Newcastle Logistics Precinct to coordinate the transportation of renewable energy equipment as part of the once-in-a-generation upgrade of NSW’s electricity system.  

The Newcastle Logistics Precinct is ideal for storing energy components at the Port of Newcastle. It connects easily to the state road network and the Port to REZ route.

It will be on the government-owned Intertrade site next to the Port of Newcastle lease area. This is an opportunity to expand the capacity to accommodate the large number of renewable energy components arriving at the Port of Newcastle.

The NSW Government is investing $115.5 million to develop the Newcastle Logistics Precinct.

Scoping report now available

We've developed a scoping report outlining plans for the Newcastle Logistics Precinct. This is now available on the Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure’s Major Project’s website.

This is the project's first major planning milestone. We'll continue to engage with the community and key stakeholders as the project progresses. 

We'll invite the community to provide feedback and submissions on an environmental impact statement for the project later in 2025.
