Working with the community

Community feedback

EnergyCo is working closely with the community as we plan and deliver the New England Renewable Energy Zone (REZ).

EnergyCo has been consulting with communities and landowners on a study corridor for the New England REZ transmission project since June 2023. 

This feedback, along with information gathered from field investigations has resulted in a range of changes to the preliminary study corridor. These changes can be viewed on the interactive map.

EnergyCo has now finalised a revised study corridor for the transmission project that minimises overall impacts on local landowners and the environment and increases the use of state-owned land. 

Community information sessions

In response to feedback, we will hold a community information session for landowners and community members in the Woolomin and Duncans Creek area on Tuesday 14 May 2024.

A formal presentation will be provided addressing feedback received from these communities, so we encourage you to arrive a few minutes early. There will be time to ask questions after the presentation.

Details 
Tuesday 14 May 2024, 5.30pm to 7.30pm
Woolomin-Duncan's Creek War Memorial Hall - 53 Nundle Rd, Woolomin

We encourage you to register for the information session by emailing our team at [email protected]. Registration is not mandatory but will help us know how many people to expect.
