flag HumeLink, a $4.8B power line in NSW, is speeding toward 2026 completion, boosting clean energy and jobs despite land-use concerns.

flag Construction is accelerating on HumeLink, a $4.8 billion overhead transmission line in southern New South Wales, designed to boost electricity transfer between southern NSW and Sydney, support the Snowy Hydro expansion, and help Australia meet its 2035 emissions target. flag The 395-kilometer, 500-kilovolt line will deliver up to 2,200 megawatts of power—enough to supply about three million homes for a week—and is on track for completion by 2026. flag While facing opposition over impacts on farmland and national parks, Transgrid reports 98.9% of private landholders have agreed to land access, and strict environmental safeguards are in place. flag Underground alternatives were deemed too costly and time-consuming. flag The project is expected to create 1,600 regional jobs.
