As a result of the Victorian Government’s commitment to increasing water market transparency, the Victorian Water Register has created three new interactive dashboards. The dashboards allow the public to access new water market data and see long term trends.
The dashboards topics cover:
- Water allocation trading
- Available water
- Inter-valley trade opportunities
Water allocation trading
This dashboard shows where allocations are being traded and at what price. You can select the time frame and location of interest for either buyers or sellers.

Available water dashboard
This dashboard shows the percentage of water available for private owners, environmental water holders and water corporations. With a more detailed breakdown shown in the graph below.

Trade opportunities
The third dashboard provides insights on inter-valley trade opportunities in the current year, how trade opportunities have changed over time and factors that have influenced trade opportunities.
