Community energy is part of enabling a more democratic, socially equitable and climate-safe energy sector. Melbourne Community Power will be at the Community Energy Congress in Canberra helping to make this vision a reality: http://c4ce.net.au/ stay tuned!
Melbourne Community Power is a community-led enterprise that aims to address issues like climate change, sustainable economic development, and community connectedness by driving uptake of renewable energy through collaboration between local business groups, our community and council. By providing local residents, businesses and local government the opportunity to invest in and manage sustainable energy projects in their own neighbourhood, the economic, environmental and social benefits generated can circulate locally, empowering our community to drive clean energy uptake and help build a widely beneficial, modern economy.
Melbourne Community Power is now calling on people to come and get involved in bringing this project to fruition. With your help, and the support of our community, we can put the power back in our hands and grow a vibrant, community-powered Melbourne.
