About the
Project​

High Sea Wind

High Sea Wind (HSW) is a bottom-fixed offshore wind project in the early stages of development.  Located 76km off the coast of Gippsland, Victoria, this project will play a key role in supporting the Victorian Government’s offshore wind energy targets while bringing significant economic benefits to the Gippsland region.

Exclusively developed by Ocean Winds, this project will have a capacity of around 1.3 gigawatts (GW), expected to power the equivalent to 1 million Victorian households each year and avoid around 5.3 million tonnes of CO2 emissions annually.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia, where we live, work, and grow. We honour their enduring connection to land, waters, skies, and culture, and are committed to walking alongside First Nations peoples in respectful partnership.
