About the project

OX2 are pleased to announce that the project has been sold to the State Electricity Commission (SEC). SEC - New SEC Renewable Energy Park 100% publicly owned
The SEC is delivering the SEC Renewable Energy Park – Horsham, one of Australia’s first 100 per cent publicly owned, utility scale renewable energy projects. The project will help accelerate Victoria’s energy transition to deliver renewable, affordable, reliable energy for all Victorians.
The SEC is working with developer OX2 to build the energy park in Victoria’s west, which was previously known as Horsham Solar Farm.

Sustainability
Sustainability
OX2 and our suppliers are guests in the local communities. For us, is extremely important to create dialogue with and show respect for the people who live and work in the local area. This includes transparent communication, creating local jobs, business sector development or financial grants through community funds or property tax, depending on the market and conditions in the area.
The expansion of renewable energy should not come at the expense of nature and it is not enough for us to mitigate climate change. We have long worked to minimize our negative impact on nature and are now taking decisive action towards our goal of nature-positive wind and solar farms by 2030.
Our projects are sustainable by design, from early planning to construction and management.

We acknowledge that anyone has a right to lodge a complaint and we will ensure that all the complaints we receive will be managed respectfully, objectively, and efficiently.
We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which the project is located, the Wotjobaluk, Jaadwa, Jadawadjali, Wergaia and Jupagulk peoples of the Wotjobaluk Nations, represented by the Barengi Gadjin Land Council (BGLC). We pay our respects to Elders who worked tirelessly to be recognised as the first positive Native Title determination in Victoria.
