Healesville CoRE is entering its fourth year of renewable energy leadership in the Yarra Valley by inviting a collection of local and national solar energy players to “talk everything Solar” at the Darron Honey Centre on Monday 2nd March at 7pm.
“Rooftop solar is already providing 2.2 million Australian households and small businesses with clean and cheap energy. We believe this market penetration can continue to deepen and that is what we at Healesville Core want to see, particularly here in the Yarra Valley.” Jeff Barlow, President of the local renewable energy group said. “Whether it’s unanswered questions on the effectiveness of the systems or lack of finance being the reason community members haven’t taken advantage of roof top solar yet. This event has been designed to answer those questions and provide solutions. Our solar energy event last year was an incredible success, with hundreds attending and dozens participating in our bulk-buy programs. This year we are supporting the Yarra Ranges Council solar panel and battery offer. We are really looking forward to continue to encourage solar uptake in our community this year.”
Presenters at the rooftop Solar Event:
- Industry expert Glenn Morris from SolarQuip will update us on the latest technologies and systems available and will speak to the economic and environmental advantages of installing PV Solar in your own home or small business.
- The Yarra Ranges Council ‘Solar Savers’ team will share all the ins and outs of the ‘Solar Savers’ Program. Including the exciting news that the program has been expanded to any homeowner in the Yarra Valley in 2020. From accessing energy needs to installation all the way through to financing options, the team will be there to answer the community’s questions.
- Eko Energy the solar system supplier and installer for the council’s ‘Solar Savers’ program will also be presenting. With 13 years under their belt and over 9000 successful installs across Australia it’s easy to see why they are one of Australia’s most trusted Solar PV retailers. The virtues of the state-of-the-art solar panels and inverters on offer will be explained in detail.
- Mondo who Partnered with Healesville Core last year to run Healesville’s first and very successful community solar and battery offer are back at this event to deliver a presentation on their latest technology-the UBI: a monitoring system used to increase efficiency of solar systems and, more excitingly, opens the door to peer-to-peer energy trading within a microgrid.
