On 19 December 2022, the Australian Government declared an area in Bass Strait, off Gippsland, as an offshore renewable energy zone.
We are currently applying for a Feasibility Licence to continue developing the project within that zone.
We'll update all interactive maps and images if we are awarded a Feasibility Licence, expected later this year.
Turbines make electricity from the wind’s energy. Offshore wind turbines are getting better – the bigger turbines out at sea mean you can make more electricity from each one, which saves money and is more sustainable. We’ll choose a turbine once we finish our investigations and studies.
