Energy Literacy & Efficiency
Understanding how energy works and how we use it is more important than ever. Energy literacy not only helps reduce costs, but also plays a critical role in a sustainable future.
Thanks to funding from the Foundation of Rural & Regional Renewal, our range of fact sheets offers accessible, easy-to-understand information designed to help you assess your energy consumption and make your home more comfortable.
We aim to empower everyone with crucial knowledge about energy use, to demystify complex concepts, and offer practical advice that anyone can follow.
Local Solar information
We get asked frequently about recommended solar providers, but as matter of policy we cannot recommend specific suppliers as we wish to remain impartial, and they are also constantly changing. What we do advise is to go with one of the solar-only companies around Bendigo found here:

These approved sellers meet consumer protection standards for solar, battery storage, EV chargers and more. Some are electricians who also do solar, but we recommend companies that focus only on solar for their expertise and track record.
