In its entirety, EnergyConnect includes a new 900km electricity transmission line, known as an interconnector, that will connect power grids across three Australian states, driving competition in the wholesale electricity market. The interconnector is being built between Wagga Wagga in New South Wales, and Robertstown in South Australia, with a connection to Red Cliffs in Victoria.

This backbone infrastructure for the future Southwest NSW Renewable Energy Zone, will enable connection of a further 4950MW of generation capacity, save NSW customers $180 million a year and is creating up to  1,500 new construction jobs in regional NSW.

Elecnor Australia has been contracted to complete 700kms of the interconnector from Wagga Wagga in NSW to the South Australian border, and the connection to Red Cliffs in Victoria.
