VicGrid shared a map of the study area and connection hub area in March this year. The study area will be narrowed to a preferred corridor following on-the-ground studies and consultation with landholders, community, First Peoples and technical stakeholders, according to information at DEECA.

The new high-voltage transmission link would be a double-circuit HVAC overhead transmission line capable of transferring 2 GW of energy generated by offshore wind farms and would become part of Victoria’s transmission network, the Declared Shared Network (DSN).
