CS Energy employees recently took their family members behind the scenes of the electricity generation process as part of the 2026 Callide Power Station Family Day.
Callide Power Station General Manager Malcolm Bambling hosted the event to recognise the contribution of employees and contractors to the power station’s improved performance over the past year and to thank families for their support.
“In FY2026, CS Energy achieved all of its Electricity Maintenance Guarantee targets, and part of that success can be attributed to the team at Callide,” Mr Bambling said.
“Keeping a power station running can sometimes mean long hours away from home, particularly during overhauls.
“A supportive family makes all the difference in helping our people show up to work fit and ready to do their jobs.”
The family day included lunch and children’s activities at Queensland Heritage Park, as well as bus tours of the power station.
CS Energy Chair Tony Bellas travelled to Biloela to join in the festivities and spend time with the Callide team and their families.
CS Energy timed the family day ahead of upcoming summer readiness works on the two Callide B generating units, which start in late October.
The planned outages of Callide Units B1 and B2 will include maintenance on precipitators, air heaters and other critical equipment to prepare the units for the summer peak demand period.
