You may have heard of our latest project, the Neighbourhood Battery Initiative 'Tariff Trial'.
What's it all about? 100 Phillip Island households are needed to take part in a Victorian-first 12-month renewable energy sharing trial. We're calling on renters, owners or holiday houses, as well as people with or without solar panels, to volunteer. We particularly need more households who do NOT have solar to take part - is this you or a friend or neighbour? Help us spread the word by sharing this newsletter!

The Circular Economy -
what is it and how does it relate
to regenerative land management?
TRPI has been working alongside the Bass Coast Landcare Network, soil scientist Declan McDonald and regenerative agriculture business consultant Mark Gardner.

Gippsland Renewable Energy Zone
Did you know Gippsland will become a renewable energy powerhouse?
Totally Renewable Phillip Island presented at the Gippsland New Energy Conference in Sale a few weeks back on 'Engaging conversations: Ensuring communities are part of the new energy journey'. We highlighted the Island's Neighbourhood Battery Initiative projects, and how our community is working together to be carbon neutral (and 100% renewable) by 2030. We heard about large-scale offshore wind and solar farms, hydrogen networks, geothermal projects and more. The limit is our imagination, so let's all keep dreaming (and planning) for a positive future! | |
