A CRITICAL PART OF AUSTRALIA’S NEW ENERGY FUTURE
Marinus Link is a proposed electricity and telecommunications interconnector between Tasmania and Victoria.
It will enable the flow of electricity in both directions between the two states, delivering low-cost, reliable and clean energy for customers in the National Electricity Market (NEM). It will enable excess energy generated on the mainland to be stored in Tasmania’s hydro storage, and made available for use when NEM demand outstrips supply.
Tasmania’s renewable energy and storage resources will also be available for use throughout the NEM as a result of Marinus Link.
Australia’s energy ministers have recognised that Marinus Link is a transmission project of national significance.
