Kim Derriman

I have over 20 years of experience in statutory planning, environmental impact assessments, and environmental management. From 2007 until 2021, I was integral in the delivery of all of Pacific Hydro’s Australian renewable energy projects. I led a team that manage all aspects of planning, development and environmental approvals for Pacific Hydro’s Australian assets, ensuring that planning and environmental approval requirements are managed appropriately throughout project’s development, construction and operational phases. I was Chair of the Clean Energy Council's (CEC) Wind Directorate for two years, from October 2019 until the end of 2021, after being elected by CEC members. In January 2022 I commenced working for Flotation Energy as the Environment and Stakeholder Manager for Project Seadragon, a 1.5GW offshore wind project planned off the coast of Gippsland in eastern Victoria.
