EnergyCo has been working with private landowners in the Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone (REZ), to negotiate the route for transmission towers and power lines across their properties, known as an easement. 

We appreciate the time and effort people have put in to find ways to make this change possible and are pleased to already have in principle agreements with over 80% of private landowners. 

This can be a complex and stressful process for many and EnergyCo is committed to negotiating with the highest levels of empathy and respect for landowners impacted by this process. We also provide individual case managers and mental wellbeing support services. 

While landowners are free to discuss the acquisition process with whomever they want, we don’t disclose information about individual cases to respect privacy. The process is a transparent one – read on to learn more.
