Sunny Shire is a volunteer based community energy group in the Sutherland Shire. We want to help the Sutherland Shire community get the benefits of renewable energy and energy efficiency such as cost savings, self-reliance, resilience and lower impact on our environment. How will we do this? We hope to kick start many activities that enable our community to get the most of the clean energy transition that is now underway. This may include advocacy, crowd funding, group buying and events.
Rooftop Solar Bulk Buy
Our first project, a rooftop solar bulk buy, has helped over 130 shire families get high quality value for money rooftop solar using local quality solar companies. Would you like to help or join? Or just stay in touch? Please get in touch. For more information about Community Energy and other Community Energy Projects around Australia and Internationally, please check out these website:

Sunny Shire is proudly supported by Sutherland Shire Environment Centre, helping the Sutherland Shire community to protect and care for the environment since 1991.
Volunteers
Sunny Shire volunteers for the community solar bulk buy include founding convenors Jonathan Prendergast and Jay Banyer, who both work professionally in energy, and UNSW PV engineering and commerce student, Liam Parnell. Sunny Shire also has many supporters and in future would like to form groups for other projects, events and governance.
