RDA Riverina Staff Attend South West Major Projects Roadshow

Last Month, RDA Riverina staff members Marg Couch (Manager Griffith Projects), and Katie Pastro (Projects Officer) supported the South West Renewable Energy Zone (REZ) community and business forums hosted by EnergyCo. These events brought together local residents, businesses, and project partners to discuss the exciting developments underway in the region’s renewable energy future.

The roadshow provided valuable insights into the opportunities emerging from the South West REZ, including updates on major wind, solar, and battery projects, as well as information on procurement processes and job creation. With over $17 billion in private investment and thousands of jobs expected, the REZ is set to transform the region’s energy landscape and economic outlook.

Katie and Marg appreciated the chance to connect with community members and hear directly from developers and EnergyCo representatives. Their attendance reflects a shared commitment to staying informed and engaged as the region transitions to clean, reliable energy.
