Company History
Consolidated Power Projects Australia Pty Ltd (CPP) was established in Australia in 1996 by Consolidated Power Projects Co Ltd. Mauritius, with close affiliation to CONCO South Africa. CPP commercial operations were carried out independently of CONCO. Whilst our history is relatively short, we have already achieved several major milestones, many of which have contributed to Australia’s Energy Transition.
