People across Moreland are doing their fair share to reduce carbon emissions. Moreland has always been ahead of the curve taking action on climate change. This goes all the way back to the 1980s, when the Brunswick Electricity Supply Department led the charge in energy efficiency and renewables. In the 1990s Victoria’s first solar panels were installed in Moreland.
Since Moreland City Council created Moreland Energy Foundation Ltd (MEFL) in 2000 the organisations have worked together supporting our community to take action on climate change through programs such as Zero Carbon Moreland. Building on this strong history and proud reputation, in 2014 Moreland City Council and MEFL developed Moreland’s Zero Carbon Evolution strategy to get our city on track for a zero carbon future.
