SEC Renewable Energy Park Horsham Victoria
The State Electricity Commission is delivering the $370 million SEC Renewable Energy Park near Horsham - Victoria’s first 100 per cent publicly owned utility-scale solar and battery project.
Victoria is building something genuinely historic near Horsham - and the State Electricity Commission is leading the way.
The SEC is delivering the $370 million Renewable Energy Park near Horsham - Victoria's first 100 per cent publicly owned utility-scale solar and battery project. It marks the return of public energy ownership to a state that privatised its electricity assets in the 1990s.
The project combines large-scale solar generation with battery storage - a pairing that addresses both clean energy supply and grid stability. For the Wimmera region, it brings significant construction activity, local employment, and long-term operational presence to a part of Victoria that stands to benefit substantially from the renewable energy build-out.
The SEC's decision to locate the project near Horsham reflects a deliberate commitment to regional investment - ensuring the economic benefits of Victoria's energy transition reach beyond metropolitan areas.
At $370 million, the Renewable Energy Park is one of the most significant public infrastructure investments in regional Victoria's recent history - and a signal that publicly owned clean energy is back.
