The tour also included some of Magellan Power’s more established technology, which is regularly supplied to mining, oil & gas, health, transport and utilities for its’ reliable performance in the harsh Australian conditions.
Magellan Power Managing Director Masoud Abshar said the Governor is a big supporter of Australian manufactured technology, and his visit to Magellan was an example of this.
“This visit was an opportunity to showcase the fantastic work being done in the Clean Energy space by local Western Australian engineers and product assemblers. We are not a huge company, but we are making a difference through developing Australian technology and local manufacturing.”
Also discussed was the prospect of a Lithium Valley here in WA, and how Australian manufacturers like Magellan Power can be part of the supply chain from mining the raw material, to the applications of Lithium batteries be it the electric vehicle or battery storage applications.
“Why should we send our smart work overseas to China, Germany or the USA when we have capable engineers here? It’s just become a way of thinking, that other countries do smart jobs better, and that is totally wrong,” said Mr Abshar.
“We are hoping that the Governor’s visit helps bring a bit of attention to the excellent work we are doing here, because it’s so important to the future of Western Australia,” said Mr Abshar.
