The Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone (CWO REZ) is approximately 20,000 square kilometres in central NSW, centred on Dubbo and Dunedoo. It is the first REZ to be developed by EnergyCo under the NSW Government’s Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap.

The CWO REZ transmission project will build new high-capacity transmission lines, energy hubs and supporting infrastructure to transfer power generated by solar and wind farms to electricity consumers. The project consists of 90km of 500kV overhead transmission lines and 150km of 330kV transmission lines for generator connections, stretching from Elong Elong in the west through to Barigan Creek in the east, via an energy hub at Merotherie. The new infrastructure is expected to be operational by 2028 and will initially unlock up to 4.5GW of new network capacity.

HumeLink will deliver a cheaper, more reliable, and more sustainable grid for Australia to meet its future energy demends by increasing the capacity for renewable energy to be delivered across the national electricity market.

HumeLink East, one of the largest energy infrastructure initiatives in Australia, involves the design and construction of 237km of new 500kV dual circuit overhead transmission lines from Bannaby to Wondalga and the expansion of the existing Bannaby 500kV substation. The project will connect with HumeLink West at the Wondalga interface point.
