HumeLink is the 500 kV backbone that lets Snowy 2.0 actually reach the people who use the power. East runs toward Bannaby. West runs through the alpine country. APD designed both.
The tender pack was with Acciona. The issued-for-construction work is with UGL - structural, civil and conductor packages for the heavy tension and terminal towers, including the VTM family used on HumeLink West.
That is the scope. Not the whole corridor. Not the contractor story. The towers, on both sides.
