A huge thank you to those who helped submit to AEMO on its consultation on the proposed VNI-West transmission infrastructure project. The response from the farming community across the Central North of Victoria has been wonderful with AEMO having received over 500 submissions!
As a next step in our advocacy, we are encouraging you to contact the Victorian Minister for Energy and your local members of parliament to voice your concerns about the proposed transmission infrastructure and the deplorable consultation process that AEMO has so far conducted.
We ask that you call or write to your local MP using the list supplied. If you are unsure of your electorate, you can check it by visiting the VEC website.
Whilst AEMO is responsible for planning the VNI West project, the Victorian Government ultimately has final say on its go-ahead. It is therefore important that politicians are aware of the farming community’s concerns, to ensure that we are not ignored.
