North West Transmission Developments

As Tasmania’s energy demands increase, TasNetworks needs to strengthen the state’s electricity transmission network. The North West Transmission Developments (NWTD) include new and upgraded transmission lines, substations and switching stations. The project is currently in the Design and Approvals phase. It is anticipated that main construction activities will commence in 2026, following approvals.

The developments will enable Tasmania to become a world-leading renewable energy provider and support the decarbonisation of Australia.
