Overview from the UNSW website:

The Tyree Energy Technologies Building (TETB) will accommodate and showcase state-of-the-art and leading edge research in clean energy including photo-voltaics, carbon capture and storage. The Project is an initiative of the Australian Government being conducted as part of the Education Investment Fund, and has received Government funding of $75 million.

The building has been named after Sir William Tyree, a UNSW alumnus, successful innovator and businessman, and a major philanthropic supporter of Australian engineering and educational research. Sir William has generously donated $1 million towards the new centre and pledged a further bequest of $10 million.

Situated on the corner of Anzac Parade and the University Mall, the TETB is the most prominent remaining site on Campus, and accordingly requires an iconic building that will provide a gateway to the Faculty of Engineering, the Lower Campus, and the University as a whole.

The TETB project is being led by UNSW Facilities Management in conjunction with Capital Insight Pty Ltd and is expected to be complete and ready for students in February 2012. The anticipated construction value for the TETB is approximately $81.6 million.
