East Perth Power Station, Industrial heritage site in East Perth, Australia
The East Perth Power Station occupies 8.5 hectares along the Swan River, bordered by East Parade, Summers Street, and Graham Farmer Freeway.
The Western Australian State Government constructed this power station between 1913 and 1916 to supply electricity for the entire Perth Metropolitan area.
The station represents industrial progress through its preserved machinery and equipment, with worker stories documented in the Battye Library oral history collection.
The decommissioned power station site has undergone various redevelopment proposals, including plans for residential spaces and commercial facilities in the area.
The facility switched from coal to oil power generation for six years before returning to coal operations in 1974.
