Welcome to
Ørsted's Gippsland Offshore Wind Farm

Let’s unlock the power of offshore wind in Australia

Our projects will demonstrate that reliable clean energy goes hand-in-hand with long-term benefits for communities, the economy and the environment.

We will work closely with local communities and partner with Traditional Owners, to ensure the right outcomes are achieved for Australia.

This powerhouse project is poised to light up millions of homes in Australia with sustainable electricity.

Who’s behind it?

Ørsted – a renewable energy company headquartered in Denmark and the global leader in offshore wind

When is it happening?

The first project is expected to be completed in the early 2030s

Where is it?

More than 50 km off the coast of Gippsland, Victoria

Why do it?

It’ll speed up Australia’s renewable energy transition, create jobs, grow local economies, and protect the environment

The location

Our far-shore project site is located off the coast of Gippsland, Victoria. The site is 56 km – 100 km from land, and beyond the visible eyeline from the coast.

Acknowledgement of Country

Ørsted acknowledges the Gunaikurnai people’s spiritual connection to their lands, waters and sky. Since the first sunrise, the Gunaikurnai people have cared for and nurtured this sacred land on which our projects will be developed. We will embrace the legacy of their ancestors by valuing the resilient culture they have maintained for thousands of years. Together, we will build an authentic relationship that enables their direct benefit.

Building green energy that works for Australia

Supporting local communities

We are committed to making a positive impact in the communities where we develop, construct and operate our offshore wind farms and other projects.

We want to be a good neighbour and a trusted partner to the communities we serve.

Our projects will create opportunities for long-term benefits to society, the economy and environment. We're ready to make that happen together with communities in Victoria and beyond.
