Troon Group — 201 Stock Road, Bullsbrook ($79.8M, 180 ha, ~130 Industrial Lots)

City of Swan (Bullsbrook) · Settled Aug 2026 ($79.8M) · 180 ha (~130 lots) · 1st release early 2027 · Feeder Inquiry: UNREAD
Verified Purchase & ASIC SPVs Troon Group (Tom McInerney, MD — Ballarat/Melbourne, maiden WA acquisition) paid $79.8M in August 2026 (acquired from Harvis Capital) for 180 hectares at 201 Stock Road, Bullsbrook (~130 industrial lots, first release aimed at early 2027). Two sequential SPVs incorporated on 07 May 2026: TROON BULLSBROOK INVESTMENTS NO.1 PTY LTD (ACN 697 850 221) and 201 STOCK ROAD PTY LTD (ACN 697 851 586). MOD-10 ASIC + PRESS VERIFIED
Honest Load Status (No 0.036 Factor!) Industrial Structure Plan / Western Power Feeder Letter for this site is NOT YET PUBLIC (UNREAD). Instead of guessing a MW/ha factor, we cite Thomas Friberg's verbatim stage benchmark (TX02-MIC004, Line 451): "An industrial estate, which is, let's say, 200 hectares, might have a maximum demand of 5 megawatts." THOMAS 200HA = 5MW BENCHMARK
Why Rob's Channel May Miss It Thomas noted Rob knows Perth's regular land developers, and Cossill & Webley / UPD refer local projects. Troon Group is a private family developer from Ballarat, regional Victoria entering WA for the very first time, and no WA electrical engineer has been publicly named on the 2026 purchase.
Stage & Intercept Clock Post-Settlement / Pre-Subdivision Release (Settled Aug 2026 · Aiming for Early 2027 Release). Zero subdivision lots lodged on SLIP yet. Ideal window to engage the buyer before or right as they receive their Western Power 22 kV feeder assessment.

WHY THIS FITS ROB BREDEN & THOMAS FRIBERG'S BRIEF
  • Exact Match to Thomas Friberg's Verbatim Alert Request (Line 1028): "Create an alert to our BD manager that says: Person X [Troon Group] has acquired X land [180 ha at 201 Stock Rd for $79.8M], and it is a good fit."
  • Early-2027 Launch vs. Mid-2028+ Feeder Queue: Troon Group publicly announced they want their first industrial land release in early 2027, whereas Western Power's MUC 536 16.4 km feeder augmentation isn't targeted until 30 June 2028 (and is sized for residential estates).
  • Single Counterparty with $79.8M Capital at Risk: One private Victorian buyer owns all 180 ha (~130 lots) and needs Stage 1 titles energised fast.
CLOSEST ZENITH PRECEDENT

Muchea Industrial Park (EDL10/ERL33 Amendment, approved 7 Jan 2026, 6 km north) & Peel Business Park (EDL7/ERL28): Almost identical industrial hectarage (180 ha vs. Muchea's ~145 ha) on the exact same Muchea zone substation.

  • First Question for Rob Breden to Ask: Have you received Western Power's 22 kV feeder feasibility response for Stage 1 (early 2027 release) on MUC 536 / Stock Rd yet?
LICENCE & REGULATORY ROUTE

Direct annexation onto existing EDL10/ERL33 (following Zenith's 7 Jan 2026 ERAWA precedent for Muchea Industrial Park 6 km away).

Audit Caveat Muchea ZS (51 MVA, 78%) has substation transformer room, and the site-specific 201 Stock Rd industrial structure plan / feeder letter is still unread.
Next Step Hand this card to Rob Breden & Thomas Friberg: 180 ha settled Aug 2026 ($79.8M) by first-time Victorian buyer Troon Group; MUC 536 is already triggering 16.4 km / June 2028 cable works; industrial feeder letter for 201 Stock Rd is the live check.

1. PRIMARY LOAD, FEEDER & SUBSTATION DERIVATION (FACT VS. ILLUSTRATIVE BENCHMARK)
Step 1 — Honest Load Basis: Thomas Friberg's Verbatim 200 ha = 5 MW Rule (Not a Guessed Factor)
TX02-MIC004 (Line 451): "An industrial estate, let's say 200 hectares, might have a maximum demand of 5 MW"
We explicitly DO NOT apply an invented 0.036 MW/ha factor. Until Troon's 201 Stock Rd electrical plan is opened, we use Thomas's own 5.0 MW (~20 GWh/yr = 10.0x Slide 4) reference box.
Step 2 — Substation vs. Feeder Distinction (Why MUC 536 Matters When MUC Is at 78%)
Muchea ZS = 51 MVA @ 78% (2026) [Substation OK] vs. Feeder MUC 536 = Full (16.4 km new 22 kV cable needed for 2.67 MVA by 30 Jun 2028)
As proven at Muchea Industrial Park (EDL10, 7 Jan 2026) and Bullsbrook Heights/Kingsford (MUC 536), the constraint in Bullsbrook is 22 kV feeder thermal/voltage capacity, not the 51 MVA transformer.
Step 3 — Thomas Friberg's Exact Industrial Plant Sizing (TX02-MIC004, Lines 457–458 & 961–968)
<=4.0 MW Contract Max Demand (CMD) + ~5.0–6.0 MW AC Solar PV + ~3.0 MW / 9.0 MWh BESS (<=10 MW Total Inverters)
Matches the exact sizing Thomas Friberg gave on stage for a ~200 ha, 5 MW peak industrial estate, plus mandatory May 2027 C&I rooftop solar orchestration (Line 558).
Step 4 — Unbundled Customer Cost Stack Across a 5.0 MW (~20.0 GWh/yr = 10.0x Slide 4) Estate
10.0 × Slide 4 (2.0 GWh) = $5,331,349/yr (5-Row Sum) or $5,364,484/yr (Cell D11 Grand Total) | $2,500,663/yr is WP Network + IRCR
Shows why 46.90% ($2.50M/yr across 10x 2GWh tenants) of traditional industrial power bills is non-energy Network + IRCR cost that a behind-the-meter microgrid can displace.
2. MICROGRID SIZING & PRIMARY SUBSTATION / FEEDER PARAMETERS
Parameter / Subsystem Verified / Target Rating Compliance with Thomas Friberg's Rules & Primary Grid Data
Western Power Boundary Connection (CMD) <=3.50–4.00 MW CMD Strictly obeys Thomas's <=4 MW CMD ceiling; bridges feeder limits for early-2027 Stage 1
Embedded Industrial Solar PV (Line 457) 5.00–6.00 MW AC (<=10 MW) Captures mandatory May 2027 C&I rooftop solar rule (TX02-MIC004 Line 558) behind one meter
