The project is located off the coast of Brataualung and Tatungalung Country, Gippsland, approximately 10km from Seaspray, Victoria. The Blue Mackerel team aspires to a genuine partnership with the Gunaikurnai people, the custodians of the Land and Sea Country on which the project is planned. The project site is part of an interconnected cultural landscape that includes both land and waters. In April 2024, the Australian Government awarded the Blue Mackerel project a seven-year feasibility licence for a 163km2 area. Subject to approvals, Blue Mackerel aims to deliver its potential planned capacity of approximately 1GW of renewable energy by 2032. That’s enough to provide with the equivalent of approximately half a million Victorian homes with green power. Blue Mackerel is contributing to accelerate offshore wind in Australia to help create lasting environmental, economic and social benefits.
