Megavar’s head office in Cambridge is our largest base and the centre of operations for the company. Founded in Tasmania over two decades ago, the Hobart head office houses our executive leadership, engineering design team, test equipment fleet management, and our largest field operations workforce, and serves as the primary delivery point for HV testing, commissioning, design, SCADA engineering and maintenance services across the state. Tasmania’s grid, including the hydroelectric system, Basslink, and the growing wind and BESS portfolio, is our home network and our deepest operational footprint anywhere in Australia.
