We are all wanting to move towards a more sustainable future, and solar panels are a practical endeavour that both helps the planet, and helps the business owner.

In an effort to bring down rising power costs and play our part in caring for the planet, the Association is researching options to build infrastructure and install solar panels in and around the business park that can feed back into the grid or directly to local businesses.

Research is in its early stages but a number of other similar initiatives are starting across the council and across the country, and we are hoping to work with those who have already established a project such as this, like our neighbours Latrobe University.
