Western Power is delivering the network infrastructure needed to achieve the State Government’s vision to make Western Australia a world-leading renewable energy powerhouse.

Our transmission network plays a critical role in carrying wind and solar energy from where it’s generated to where it’s needed. As demand for cleaner electricity grows and coal‑fired generation is retired, the network needs to be strengthened and expanded to keep pace.

The State Government has provided $1.6 billion so far to facilitate major upgrades and expansion of the network in line with the SWIS Transmission Plan. This investment is helping prepare the network to safely connect and transport more renewable energy now and into the future.

One of the first projects underway is Clean Energy Link - North. This project is reinforcing the northern part of the transmission network to increase the flow of clean energy between the Mid West and Perth.

Planning and scoping is also progressing for future Clean Energy Link projects in other parts of the SWIS. This includes proposed upgrades east of Collie and across the Wheatbelt, reinforcements in key industrial areas including Kwinana and Collie, and upgrades between Geraldton and Perth to support future development at Oakajee.

Together, these upgrades will help ensure a continued and reliable supply of cleaner electricity for our daily lives, while supporting growing communities, housing developments, industry, and the jobs and economic opportunities they bring across WA.
