Electrical Infrastructure

ACHM has delivered heritage services for a broad range of electricity infrastructure projects across Australia.

Our experience includes new high‑voltage transmission lines, network upgrades and duplications, route realignments, and the relocation of electricity assets associated with major transport, urban development, and infrastructure projects. We have also supported distribution network upgrades, substation developments, and grid‑connection works for renewable energy projects, working from early feasibility and route selection through to construction and commissioning. 

ACHM’s multidisciplinary team provides end‑to‑end heritage support for electricity infrastructure, including due diligence assessments, Cultural Heritage Management Plans, historic heritage assessments, GIS‑based constraints mapping, stakeholder and Traditional Owner engagement, and construction monitoring. This depth of experience enables us to manage regulatory risk, maintain project momentum, and deliver compliant, practical outcomes for complex powerline, upgrade, and relocation projects.

ACHM have provided services and advice for projects such as:

  • 66kv power line between Somerton and Craigieburn
  • 66kv power line between Keilor East and Tullamarine
  • Powerline upgrade between Leongatha and Korrumburra
  • Rio Tinto Hope Downs 1 to Hope Downs 4 220kv powerline
