Description

Join our webinar: Rooftop solar and battery negotiated for houses in Point Pearce Aboriginal community

First Nations, industry and government are invited to an inspiring webinar showcasing what’s possible when First Nations communities lead their own energy future.

The Point Pearce Aboriginal Community in South Australia has successfully negotiated a rooftop solar and battery solution for households in their community and they want to share how they did it.

Led by Narungga man and Network PowerMaker Eddie Newchurch, Point Pearce Aboriginal Corporation worked with local electricity retailer AGL to develop a plan for installing 6 - 7 kilowatts of rooftop solar and a 10-kilowatt-hour battery to around 40 households by mid-2026.

The result? Once installed, more affordable energy bills, with estimated electricity cost savings of $1,000 - $2,000 per household per year.
