Overview
We’ve been contracted by the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) to deliver the Western Renewables Link, a 190km long high-voltage electricity transmission line. The proposed route will run from Bulgana Terminal Station to Sydenham Terminal Station.
Why we’re doing this
The Western Renewables Link is critical infrastructure that will unlock access to renewable energy generated in western Victoria. This will help deliver clean and affordable energy to all Victorians.
Planning and mitigation
Extensive planning and investigations are currently underway to ensure:
- the potential impacts of this project are identified
- alternative designs are considered to minimise the overall impact
- appropriate mitigation measures are in place for impacts that can’t be avoided.
Environment Effects Statement
We are currently finalising the Environment Effects Statement (EES) for the project, as required by the Victorian Government. We expect the public exhibition of the EES and the associated panel inquiry and public hearing to take place in 2025.
