SA Power Networks
global leader in 3D design
Dorrien, Kapunda and Gawler Belt were
the globally pioneering 3D design projects
for brownfield site construction of power
substations using 3D technologies. Nobody

workflow using a brownfield site before.
Use of this technology allows for better
planning and helps avoid costly conflicts
in design which are often only revealed in
later construction phases.
