Transgrid is encouraging communities and landowners in the state’s Murray River region to review the preferred route for the new interconnector project VNI West, which once completed, will accelerate the energy transition and greatly increase the sharing of cheaper, renewable electricity for millions of Australians.

Members of the community are being encouraged to provide feedback on a preferred route for a new transmission line critical to delivering cleaner, cheaper and more reliable electricity from NSW’s first Renewable Energy Zone in the state’s central west.

Transgrid has welcomed the Australian Energy Market Operator’s (AEMO) roadmap which underscores the urgent need for the accelerated delivery of its major transmission projects in NSW and Victoria.

Botanic gardens, bush fire brigades, medical services, Aboriginal land councils, schools, environment groups, charities, sporting clubs, and arts organisations are among the recipients of a much-needed funding boost for local communities in various parts of NSW.

Students at a Riverina high school are taking a leading role in educating their peers about Australia’s great renewable energy transition, developing a winning concept for an interactive Discovery Pod to be located at Transgrid’s new community engagement centre.

Transgrid has announced its two partners to deliver the proposed nation-critical transmission project HumeLink, which will help secure energy supply for millions of Australians as ageing coal-fired power stations are retired.
