Implementation Statement | Offshore Wind, Victoria
Coal and gas can no longer be relied upon to keep powering our state – and they’re no longer the cheapest option.
It’s wind and solar that will provide the clean, cheap renewable energy Victoria needs to grow,
while making sure we meet our renewable energy and climate targets.
The Allan Labor Government is proud to be a leader in the once-in-a-generation renewable
energy transition.
Our targets will be locked in by legislation – giving businesses and investors the certainty they need
and showing the world exactly how seriously we take securing Victoria’s bright energy future.
We have brought back the State Electricity Commission (SEC) with a $1 billion investment
towards building 4.5 gigawatts of new renewable energy generation and storage projects – helping
to accelerate the energy transition and drive down power bills.
Offshore wind energy is a vital part of the energy transition. Offshore Wind Energy Victoria is the
gateway for industry, stakeholder and community engagement as we plan for the future and grow
this exciting industry
