We absolutely want to see a #CommunityEnergyTarget! It will bring huge benefits to communities, especially regional ones: refreshing local economies, reducing emissions, and increasing resilience. Sign the petition and share widely! Community Energy melbournefoe.org.au/communityenerg…

For the time being, I'd like to thank everyone who helped create the Local Power Plan and who has helped get the Bill to this point. This is genuine, grass-roots policy-making by regional Australia, for regional Australia.

TRY has been working with Indigo Power on the Yack01 community battery and it's nearly there! 🌞 The solar panels are up and the footings for the battery are imminent. Very exciting times – powering towards 100%! ⚡️⚡️ #RenewableEnergy #Towards100percent

Now this is a story! We have many groups asking us how we do what we do. Read Hepburn Wind's story - they're one of the first and an inspiration. The secret is persistence and conversations - engage your community. Happy anniversary @hepburnwind 🎉 #communityEnergy

And to continue the conversation on @hepburnwind, after ten years of community wind energy they're still innovating #znet #communityEnergy

The other pioneering #communityEnergy enterprise in Australia is Denmark Community Wind Farm. A contemporary and peer of @hepburnwind. Both achieved amazing outcomes and benefits for their communities. google.com/amp/s/amp.abc.… dcw.net.au/project.htm

We were thrilled to have a special visitor in Yack on Thursday, checking out the installation at the CFA and the post office. It was an honour to meet such a delightful and engaging person!

A really powerful day of testimonies today at the parliamentary enquiry into the Australian Local Power Agency bill. TRY was proud to be able to contribute with others and advocate for the benefits of community energy to communities. Thanks Helen Haines MP for all your work!

Lots of info in this thread about the jobs created by renewable energy. We need this in our regional/rural areas and all over Australia - it's a once in a century shot in the arm. We need a Local Power Plan. Helen Haines MP #LocalPowerPlan #renewables

It's not nearly as exciting as saving 63% on your power bill, but TRY has been having a say on energy policy. Look out for the parliamentary committee report in October. totallyrenewableyack.org.au/2021/09/alpa-h…
