Partnership between government and industry will be crucial for Victoria to deliver the energy infrastructure we need to successfully transition from coal to renewables.
VicGrid is working to give the energy industry certainty and create the conditions to foster market participation and drive project success.
We are developing a new approach to planning renewable energy zones and transmission infrastructure through the delivery of the Victorian Transmission Investment Framework and the Victorian Transmission Plan. This will provide clarity on when transmission infrastructure will be built and the most suitable places for new generation.
We are putting in place a new access regime and procurement processes to ensure better outcomes for the community and sustainable opportunities for industry.
We are also engaging with the market to inform potential project development and procurement approaches.
VicGrid’s industry objectives are to:
- increase project and development certainty
- ensure Victoria is an attractive place for the energy industry to invest
- improve coordinated development of the transmission infrastructure
- build a sustainable transmission industry
- deliver a fair and equitable transition for communities.
