Dederang - Conversations with Councillors | Kiewa Valley BESS

The Victorian Government is now seeking community feedback on the proposed Kiewa Valley Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project (formally known as Trina BESS) in Dederang.

The application is being assessed by the Department of Transport and Planning (DTP) as the responsible authority for the project. Alpine Shire Council is not the decision-maker in this process. However, we are also keen to understand the views of our community – so we invite you to send us a copy of your submission to help inform future advocacy and conversations. Community members are also encouraged to send a copy of their submission to info@alpineshire.vic.gov.au for Council’s consideration.

In addition, Council is hosting a number of in-person sessions prior to the May Council Meeting for community members to speak with Councillors, and share their views on the BESS proposal.

Groups of up to three people can book in for one 15-minute session.

These sessions will be held in the Multi Purpose Building at the Dederang Recreation Reserve.
