Delivering a sustainable future for the Grampians region.
The Grampians New Energy Taskforce, GNET, has been formed to represent, lead and advocate for the development of a net zero carbon economy in the Grampians region. GNET are planning for a net zero emissions economy by 2050 and are working with communities, the renewables industry and the Government to maximise the long-term benefits of this investment to the Grampians region and its people.
The Objectives
The Grampians Region is one of the most energy intense parts of Victoria and is considered by Australia’s Energy Market Operator (AEMO) ‘Western Victoria’s Renewable Energy Zone’.
Priority Projects
GNET work on a variety of renewable energy projects statewide that move the region towards a sustainable zero-carbon future. Our work is supported by a number of key organisations.
Regional Roadmap to Zero (R2Z)
The R2Z illustrates the pathways and recommended actions for the region to take as it transitions to a net zero emissions economy.

“There is almost $5 billion worth of wind and solar construction projects in planning or under construction in the Grampians region creating over 2,000 construction jobs, with strong growth projected for the future.”
