This includes new high-capacity transmission lines, energy hubs and related infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>Endeavour Energy signed the commitment to partner with Acciona and Cobra, Madrid based companies, to form ACEREZ, the preferred network operator to deliver the first 6GW capacity renewable energy zone. The partnership will design, build, operate and maintain the transmission network for the New South Wales (NSW) Government\u2019s first Renewable Energy Zone in Australia \u2013 in the Central West Orana region of New South Wales.<\/p>\n<p>The new transmission infrastructure will enable generators such as solar and wind farms and energy storage providers in the REZ to connect to the electricity grid at a scale never seen before. This will provide a reliable supply of clean, affordable electricity for households and businesses across NSW while helping to meet the state\u2019s newly legislated Net Zero targets. This is a great example of how engineers are leading the energy transition to meet the world\u2019s net zero targets.<\/p>\n<p>This is the first time the NSW Government has competitively procured a new transmission network, with delay and cost overrun risks to be substantially borne by the Network Operator, rather than passing them straight to electricity consumers.<\/p>\n<p>The project is an example of how engineers are facilitating the energy transition to a net carbon zero future and to advance the UN Sustainable Development Goals.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<i>Article provided by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wfeo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/Marlene_Kanga-Bio_WFEO_President_2017-2019.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dr Marlene Kanga<\/a> AO FTSE FREng \u2013 Former President World Federation of Engineering Organisations (2017-2019)<\/i><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<b>For more information:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i class=\"fa fa-internet-explorer fa-2x\" style=\"color: #115578;\"><\/i> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.endeavourenergy.com.au\/news\/media-releases\/two-big-milestones-mean-the-central-west-orana-renewable-energy-zone-is-powering-ahead\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" style=\"color: #115578;\">&#8220;Two big milestones mean the Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone is powering ahead&#8221; article | Endeavour Energy<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\nDr Marlene Kanga AO, (Far Right), Director Endeavour Energy &#8211; Electricity Retained Interest Corporation (ERIC-E), representing the NSW Government\u2019s 49.6 per cent stake interest in Endeavour Energy, signed the Deeds on behalf of ERIC-E on 18 December 2023.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe Australian government has entered a Commitment Deed with &#8220;ACEREZ&#8221;, a consortium comprised of Acciona, Cobra and Endeavour Energy as preferred Network Operator for the Renewable Energy Zone (REZ).<br \/>\nThe consortium ACEREZ has signed on to seek approval to deliver, &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[85],"tags":[109,95],"class_list":["post-38709","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-event-report","tag-goal-7","tag-sdgs"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Signing of commitment to deliver the first transmission network for a Renewable Energy Zone (REZ) by Endeavour Energy in partnership with Acciona and Cobra - WFEO<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wfeo.org\/signing-of-commitment-to-deliver-the-first-transmission-network-by-endeavour-energy-in-partnership-with-acciona-and-cobra\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Signing of commitment to deliver the first transmission network for a Renewable Energy Zone (REZ) by Endeavour Energy in partnership with Acciona and Cobra - WFEO\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Dr Marlene Kanga AO, (Far Right), Director Endeavour Energy &#8211; Electricity Retained Interest Corporation (ERIC-E), representing the NSW Government\u2019s 49.6 per cent stake interest in Endeavour Energy, signed the Deeds on behalf of ERIC-E on 18 December 2023. &nbsp; The Australian government has entered a Commitment Deed with &#8220;ACEREZ&#8221;, a consortium comprised of Acciona, Cobra and Endeavour Energy as preferred Network Operator for the Renewable Energy Zone (REZ).
