The VicGrid Stage 2 Reform erodes trust and landholder rights. Learn how this law entrenches past failures and jeopardises Victoria’s energy transition.
Energy Grid Alliance critiques Victoria’s Draft 2025 Transmission Plan, revealing flawed assumptions and calling for transparent, community-led planning.
Despite its ambitious vision, the Draft 2024 ISP falls short in several interconnected areas. These shortcomings collectively jeopardise the ISP's credibility and effectiveness as a roadmap for the NEM's transition.
The VEPC, in collaboration with Simon Bartlett and Darren Edwards has officially launched Victoria's 'Plan B: No longer lost in transmission'.
Energy Grid Alliance (EGA) is pleased to make a submission to the Parliament of NSW Inquiry into the feasibility of undergrounding the transmission infrastructure for renewable energy projects. EGA’s submission focusses primarily on the benefits of underground HVDC, not underground HVAC.
Evidence-based engagement enhances credibility, legitimacy, transparency, informed decision-making, and stakeholder participation. The purpose of these guidelines is to provide an overview of the practical building blocks for trust, legitimacy and credibility; the three pillars of social licence.
In this submission, EGA has not responded to the assessment of options undertaken due to a range of considerable concerns regarding to the credibility and legitimacy of the RIT-T. EGA’s submission identifies several areas of concern that warrant further investigation and discussion.
