Nexif Energy conceptualized, developed and constructed the 154 MW gas turbine peaking power plant project located near Snapper Point at Outer Harbour on the Lefevre Peninsula about 22 km north-west of Adelaide, South Australia.

Consisting of (5) GE TM-2500 mobile aero-derivative gas turbines (each with 30.8 MW of net output) leased from the Government of South Australia, the turbines were relocated from their earlier location at the former Holden factory in Elizabeth, South Australia to the new Snapper Point power plant site. The units were ideal for the application due to their very fast start and ramp capability and ability to operate on both natural gas and diesel.

Power from the project is used to sell directly to the electricity market and to support the provisions of electricity off-take contracts from the existing 212 MW Lincoln Gap wind farm located near Port Augusta in South Australia and its future 245 MW expansion.

On 20 December 2022, the Snapper Point project was sold to Ratch Australia and was managed by Nexif Energy’s subsidiary, Nexif Ratch Energy for Ratch Australia until 1 July 2024.
