MAKE THE SHIFT TO 100% RENEWABLE ENERGY

Connecting with our community

We collaborate with our community on partnerships, projects and our Impact Fund and love welcoming people to our energy park with tours, events and artist residencies.

Hepburn Z-NET

We’re proud partners of the Hepburn Z-NET collaboration, which offers a range of programs to help community members get on track to zero-net emissions. Have a look at the Hepburn Z-NET website for how your home, school, workplace or farm can get involved.

The Z-NET Roundtable is currently welcoming local and diverse stakeholders from across the shire to apply. Expressions of interest will remain open until 12pm on the 14th of November 2023 find our more here.
