The region is renowned domestically and internationally for its premium seafood, high quality agricultural product, and the pristine nature of its landscapes, seascapes and conservation parks.

The regional economy is primarily driven by the agriculture, manufacturing, fishing, tourism and mining industries. While these industries are well established, aquaculture, food, renewable energy, and health and community services are fast developing as major sources of employment and revenue generation.

Whyalla is unique having a substantial industrial base, providing mining, engineering and steel manufacturing services.

The region is the base for renewable energy generation – solar, wind, hydrogen, satellite launching and smart green manufacturing.

The region is popular for high quality and very different nature-based tourism experiences. The region’s pristine natural parks, coastal environment and Aboriginal tourism product are key attractions.

The region also has some of the world’s highest quality mineral resources of magnetite, graphite, zircon and kaolin. The mining industry is expected to have additional growth in future years when developing mines and prospects progress from exploration to operation.
This will create numerous employment and business opportunities and further diversify the regional economy.

Renewable energy is growing due to the region’s natural assets of consistent wind resources, abundant sunshine and high wave action. The region has an estimated 300 cloud free days per annum, making it ideal for large-scale solar energy farms. The wave climate on the west coast of the Eyre Peninsula is the best available in South Australia for wave harnessing technologies.

A city defined by an arid climate, transitioning to a Water Sensitive City is a crucial step to becoming a resilient, climate-adapted city that can respond constructively to the current climate emergency.

Critical to the future of Whyalla’s socio-economic growth will be access to - and supply of - potable water, as well as water to complement local industry needs, such as proposed hydrogen production, ongoing mining and Greening Whyalla Program.

Green cities reduce consumption of resources such as water and electricity and increase liveability. Increased tree canopies have a cooling effect on the ‘urban heat island’ effect which can mean a city is up to ten degrees Celsius hotter than the surrounding countryside. Green cities across the globe are attractive centres for private sector investment.

Agriculture, farm gate to plate and the processing of Eyre Peninsula primary industry produce into agribusiness products such as Gourmet Salt and Beta Carotene in Whyalla is a significant growth sector.

The opportunity exists to use the Whyalla Green program to partner with PIRSA, University of Adelaide (Roseworthy/ Waite), UniSA and local farmers/landowners to establish a new local farm gate product that includes a produce processing plant/s that can double as a Cooperative Research Centre. This offers valuable opportunities, generating both seasonal work on farms and in the off- farm milling and processing industry.

Clean Seas is the global leader in full cycle breeding, production and sale of Spencer Gulf Kingfish and the largest producer of aquaculture Yellowtail Kingfish outside Japan.

Clean Seas local operational footprint includes a Hatchery and R&D facility on South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula, multiple farm sites across the Spencer Gulf and a world- class seafood processing facility in Adelaide.

GFG Alliance operates mines (Iron Baron, Iron Knob and South Middleback Ranges mine) in the Ardrossan, the Middleback Ranges and the NSW Southern Highlands, as well as the Whyalla Port and railway. The mining business is a key component of the Alliance’s integrated supply chain.

SIMEC Energy Australia is a renewable energy business with experience constructing and managing high-value energy generation projects across Australia. SIMEC Energy Australia is currently developing the 280MW Cultana Solar Farm, and 100MW Playford Battery project in South Australia.

South Australia is estimated to have 83% of Australia’s known rare earth deposits. Our rare earths cover off 90% of the elements required to make lithium-ion batteries, destined for electric vehicle manufacturing.

The processing and exporting of graphite has the potential to be an enormous new mine growth industry for South Australia and Whyalla. Halfway between Whyalla and Port Lincoln, just outside the small fishing town of Arno Bay, lies one of the world’s largest graphite deposits.

The Defence vision for the Cultana Training Area (CUTA) Redevelopment Phase 1 Project is to create a state-of-the-art training establishment in South Australia (SA) that enables Brigade level manoeuvre and live firing exercises.

Expansion of the Cultana Training Area supports future joint training needs and the capability of 1st Brigade and 7th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment (7 RAR) Battle Group, which is established at the Edinburgh Defence Base, SA.

The Cultana Training Area is only one of two areas in Australia able to support joint and combined training. It is primarily used for Defence training activities or operations and has the potential to host training exercises involving allied forces.

Of particular interest to council is building a closer relationship between the ADF and defence industry suppliers and local businesses.

The Eyre Peninsula is Australia's major seafood hub. More than 65 per cent of the nation's seafood comes from these waters, including green-lipped abalone, scallops, prawns, oysters and tuna, which you can enjoy at the region's many seafood restaurants.

It's also a place of extreme natural beauty, with a multitude of landscapes and outdoor adventure on offer. Swim with dolphins and sea lions, cage dive with great white sharks or take an intimate whale watching tour.

Advanced Waste to Resource Processing is the alternative available to South Australia to decrease waste to landfill and stop ocean waste disposal. AWRP solutions are proven technologies that recover valuable materials for reuse and repurpose or produce energy from waste.

Many of the regions do not offer waste and resource management services beyond landfill and ocean (via wastewater treatment plant) disposal, which is a missed opportunity for the seafood and viticulture suppliers of South Australia to demonstrate a circular economy and clean green credentials.
