Understanding Australian Energy Transmission Projects Resource Hub

Through a series of collaborative workshops with community, agriculture and consumer representatives, resources were created to address knowledge gaps and topics of interest to inform landholders and communities about overhead and underground transmission infrastructure development. 

These resources have been created to help landholders and community members learn more about underground and overhead transmission projects and decision-making processes. 

Access a range of factsheets on the Understanding Australian Energy Transmission Projects Resource Hub to learn more about: 

  • Community engagement in decision-making 
  • Overhead and underground technologies explained 
  • Transmission and agriculture 
  • Transmission and bushfire 
  • Social and environmental considerations 
  • Respecting First Nations’ culture and heritage 

A massive thank you to everyone who co-developed these resources including: Community Power Agency, Energy & Water Ombudsman NSW, Farm Renewables, Farmers for Climate Action, Gippsland Climate Change Network, Justice and Equity Centre and RE-Alliance, independent representatives Joy Thomas (Independent Chair Ag + Energy Roundtable) and Rod Stowe (Independent Community Advocate NSW) and in consultation with the Australian Energy Infrastructure Commissioner. Thank you also to WSP who assisted with technical aspects of electricity transmission.
