Gas, Electrical, or Mechanical? This Reliable Power Solutions Company in the Pilbara Does It All

 

Gas, Electrical, or Mechanical? This Reliable Power Solutions Company in the Pilbara Does It All

When the lights need to stay on in the Pilbara, you can’t afford guesswork. You need field service engineering that treats uptime like oxygen, electrical troubleshooting that goes beyond band-aid fixes, and a gas fitting company that understands the realities of running power assets in remote WA. That’s where we come in.

We’re WILLPOWER Group—a fully certified power solutions company built for the Pilbara’s conditions. Our team of OEM-trained field technicians keeps mines, regional town power systems, and critical facilities running with integrated electrical, mechanical, and gas capability. From rapid breakdown response to long-horizon reliability programs, we combine hands-on experience with proper engineering to deliver safe and predictable power generation outcomes—day in and day out.


Who We Are: One Team for All Things Power

For decades, our people have lived and worked across WA’s north, operating and maintaining power stations, rotating equipment, and complex control systems. We’re proudly certified and accountable:

  • Electrical contractors (EC15910)
  • Gas fitters (GF21484)
  • OEM-trained across major engines, controllers, alternators, and auxiliary systems

We don’t just “fix and forget.” Our approach is to diagnose root causes, design upgrades that stick, and implement service programs that reduce downtime and extend asset life. If it moves, spins, generates, or protects a circuit—we maintain it.


Why Pilbara Operations Choose WILLPOWER

Remote locations, high ambient temperatures, dust, and heavy cycling—Pilbara duty is tough on power equipment. Our clients choose us because we bring:

  • End-to-end capability across electrical, mechanical, and gas
  • Rapid mobilisation to mine sites and regional communities
  • Engineering discipline (data-driven diagnostics, OEM procedures, compliant documentation)
  • Lifecycle focus—we plan beyond the next outage to stabilise performance and cost.

In short: one partner, one plan, one standard, from breakdown to full rebuild.


Electrical Services You Can Count On

Our licensed electricians and commissioning engineers tackle everything from nuisance trips to full-scale upgrades. We target safety, compliance, and repeatable performance.

Breakdowns & Emergency Repairs

When a generator drops load or a control system faults at 2 a.m., we mobilise quickly. Our field technicians arrive equipped to isolate, diagnose, and restore safely—without cutting corners.

Upgrades & Retrofits

Aging control systems and power circuits are a hidden risk. We design and deliver retrofits to current standards, improving safety, efficiency, and serviceability. Typical scopes include switchboard remediation, protection upgrades, and PLC/controls modernisation.

Load Studies & Power Quality (Fluke 1738)

With the Fluke 1738 Three-Phase Power Quality Logger, we perform load studies and power quality analysis onsite. We log voltage, current, harmonics, dips/surges, inrush, and present automated reports so you can right-size your power generation and rectify problem circuits.

Controller Upgrades & Integration

We supply, install, and commission new controllers—or bring legacy units back to life. Platforms we support include:

  • PowerCommand Control
  • ComAp
  • Deep Sea Electronics (DSE)
  • DEIF
  • Woodward

Our work covers programming, I/O validation, communications, protection settings, and full generator commissioning.

Alternator & System Testing (LV/MV/HV)

  • Insulation resistance testing
  • VLF (Very Low Frequency) testing
  • Low ohm / winding resistance
  • Vibration analysis and alignment checks

Commissioning & Installations

From a standalone genset to a temporary power station or fully remote plant, we manage the installation, cold and hot commissioning, and documentation, ensuring your system is safe, stable, and compliant.

Mains Failure & Black-Start Testing

We simulate real-world failures to validate transfer schemes and start sequences—because the only tests that truly matter are those that reflect reality.

Health Checks & Servicing

Planned inspections, load bank testing, firmware/config backups, and condition reports form the backbone of reliable operation.


Mechanical Expertise You Can Rely On

Rotating equipment is our bread and butter. Engines, pumps, gearboxes—if it turns, we maintain it like our name’s on the data plate.

Rapid Response to Breakdowns

We stabilise the fault, protect the asset, and restore capacity with OEM-level procedures. No shortcuts—just reliable, auditable work.

Minor & Major Overhauls

  • Minor overhauls: Top-end, midlife service, component replacement

  • Major overhauls: In-chassis and out-of-chassis rebuilds, dyno/run-in procedures, full QA

Fuel System Solutions

Leak-free installations, remote tank setups, filtration, and bleeding procedures that prevent air ingress and starvation faults.

Fluid Management

Condition monitoring, contamination control, and sampling programs that protect bearings, liners, and seals under heavy Pilbara loads.


Professional Gas Fitting & Type B Expertise

Gas systems in power generation demand specialist skills. Our licensed gas fitting company team (GF21484) delivers compliant, safe outcomes.

Type B Gas Appliance Services

Installation, commissioning, maintenance, and rectification to OEM specifications—with traceable records and test sheets.

Health & Compliance Checks

Leak testing, interlock verification, burner/valve checks, and safety device validation for regulatory compliance.

How We Work: A Clear, Low-Friction Process

  1. Scope & Stabilise
    We listen first. Then we stabilise the failure safely to protect equipment and people.

  2. Diagnose & Prove
    Instrumented tests, data logging, and OEM methods pinpoint the issue. Findings are documented and explained in plain English.

  3. Plan & Approve
    We propose options—repair, upgrade, or overhaul—with costs, risks, and lead times. You pick the path; we lock a schedule.

  4. Execute & Commission
    Works proceed to the procedure. We commission under realistic load scenarios, verify alarms/protections, and hand over with records.

  5. Monitor & Optimise
    Health checks, remote monitoring, and trend reports keep performance on track. No surprises—just steady, safe output.

Safety, Compliance & Documentation

Safety isn’t a slogan—it’s the way we work. Every task follows lock-out/tag-out, JSA, confined space/asbestos procedures (where relevant), as well as OEM procedures. Our documentation covers:

  • Pre-start, isolation, and energisation records
  • Test sheets and analysis reports (electrical/mechanical/gas)
  • Controller backups and configuration baselines
  • Close-out, punch-list, and maintenance recommendations

This makes audits painless and handovers crystal clear.
