Victoria will aim to generate at least 20 per cent of the state's electricity from renewable energy by 2020, the Andrews Government has said.

The target has been set out in a government "road map" for the industry to encourage more investment in cleaner technologies like wind and solar energy.

It establishes a minimum renewable energy target of 20 per cent by the end of the decade, which is slightly lower than the national goal of about 23 per cent.

At present, about 12 per cent of Victorian power comes from renewable energy.

The Government has asked for community feedback on what the 2020 and 2025 targets should be, as part of public consultation for its broader renewable energy plan.

Premier Daniel Andrews said the Government would also bring forward the building of about 100 megawatts of wind energy, by sourcing renewable energy certificates from new projects in Victoria.

"We think that's about $200 million worth of investment, or 50 new wind turbine towers across regional parts of our state," Mr Andrews said.

"If we can do better, believe me, we will."

The Government said the projects would create about 1,000 jobs in regional Victoria.
