NSW government revises path renewable transmission lines in Hunter Valley after Sky News Australia report
The HTP aims to connect large scale renewable energy wind and solar farms from Bayswater in the Upper Hunter to Eraring on the Central Coast with a 500 Kilovolt transmission line. The Hunter Transmission Project is expected to start construction in 2026, to begin operation by 2028. They were convinced the government was forging ahead with its plans regardless of community concerns.
According to EnergyCo, the revised route is 15 km shorter, and reduces the number of affected private landholders in the corridor from 75 to less than 25. “The important thing about the Sky News story was the information that was given out to even local landholders was something that had been neglected and it was a very helpful situation for everyone to understand a bit more about what was going on.”EnergyCo says it can’t use the existing and already carved out transmission line route at the request of landholders due to risk of blackouts and the state’s energy security during the construction process.
