Latest News About P*Ss Off Ausnet Hill

Updated 2026-05-08 04:04

I can share what I know up to now.

The phrase you referenced, “Piss Off AusNet,” originated as a public protest message tied to opposition to AusNet’s transmission infrastructure plans in Victoria, Australia. It gained attention a couple of years ago when a hill near the Ballarat region was visibly marked with a large sign, reflecting local farmer activism and concerns about impact on land and livelihoods.[1][5]
Coverage and discussions around the issue have included reports on community responses, government and utility actions, and independent reviews of outages and communications during storm events affecting the region. This context has featured in local news outlets and advocacy sites, highlighting ongoing tensions between landholders and AusNet over routing, compensation, and consultation processes.[2][3][4]

If you’d like, I can search for the very latest developments and provide sources with a brief summary of new statements, meetings, or policy updates.

The reason this was an issue is people were looking at this website and cancelling their holiday bookings online because they thought there was no power."
