This election, we’re using our voices and our votes for clean energy.

Find out where the parties stand

Victoria’s renewable energy target will create 9000 jobs, reduce power bills and cut the pollution that damages our climate. Solar and batteries can deliver cleaner, cheaper power for everyone.

The community is on board with clean energy. Four out of five Victorians support our renewable energy target and want to live in a state that is leading on climate change.

But dirty politics is standing in the way. Matthew Guy’s Liberal Party plans to scrap the renewable target if elected, sabotaging our local clean energy industry.

They’re backing big coal instead of what the community wants.

This election, we’re using our voices and our votes for clean energy. Join the campaign to Repower Victoria with clean energy from the sun and wind.

Our vision for Victoria

Victoria can be a leader for our climate and environment.

We can repower Victoria with clean energy from the wind and sun in a way that’s fast and fair, with the benefits shared by everyone.

And we can protect our forests, rivers and the animals that call them home.
