22 May 2025 · Updated 3 November 2026

We’re incredibly excited to share a big milestone in Megavar’s story – we’ve officially opened our new Newcastle branch, located at 22 Gavey Street, Mayfield, NSW. This isn’t just a new location on the map. It’s a long-anticipated step forward, one built on years of consistent project delivery across New South Wales. For our team, our clients, and the broader energy and infrastructure sector in the region, it’s a development that reflects both growth and genuine commitment.

From Regular Projects to Permanent Presence

For the past few years, our commissioning, maintenance, and high-voltage testing teams have been a regular presence in Newcastle and its surrounds. Whether it was supporting substation upgrades, providing urgent maintenance, or delivering complex commissioning services for developers and utilities, we’ve been here – week in and week out. So it only made sense to make it official. Opening a permanent base in Newcastle wasn’t just a logistical decision. It was about meeting demand, improving our responsiveness, and providing better, faster support for clients across the state. As our teams often say: “We were already part of the community. Now we’ve got a home here, too.” Megavar Newcastle office at Mayfield West

Why This Matters – for Us, and for the Region

The Newcastle-Hunter region has become a vital part of NSW’s infrastructure landscape. From energy transition projects and HV upgrades to major civil and construction works, there’s a growing need for specialised, reliable high-voltage expertise. Our new branch positions us to be even more effective partners for: 1. Developers and constructors working on time-sensitive energy and infrastructure builds 2. Utility providers in need of experienced hands for HV commissioning, earthing, testing, and ongoing maintenance 3. Asset owners and operators looking for trusted, safety-first support across the full lifecycle of their high-voltage systems With this expansion, we’re able to respond quicker, cut down on travel times, mobilise faster, and build deeper relationships with local clients and stakeholders.

A Long-Term Investment in People, Projects, and Progress

More than just bricks and mortar, the Newcastle branch represents our broader vision: to invest in local communities, create opportunities for our people, and be a trusted part of NSW’s high-voltage infrastructure evolution. We’re proud to grow our NSW team with local technicians, engineers, and project managers who know the region and understand its unique challenges. Whether it’s navigating coastal soil conditions for earthing design or working alongside local councils and utilities, we bring both national capability and regional knowledge to every job. Our culture is built around partnership, problem-solving, and performance – and this new base allows us to deliver on all three, closer than ever to our clients.
