A council in western Victoria is calling for new transmission lines to be put underground.
Hundreds of turbines have been built in the Moyne Shire with more to come.Advertisement
Moyne Shire moved a motion at last month’s Municipal Association of Victoria state council meeting calling for the introduction of its proposed reforms to renewable energy infrastructure, and gained the support of almost all Victoria’s councils. The shire wants the state government to back its proposed changes.
“We’re really keen to see the government implement some standards or benchmarks about what constitutes good community investment,” she said. Acciona engineering and construction director Daniel Belton said putting the lines underground was the most appropriate solution for the company’s Mortlake South project.
