Community Power Hubs – Funded projects
Funding is supporting Victorian communities to offer trusted advice on clean energy solutions and support, develop and deliver locally owned, cost-effective renewable energy projects. For more information, view Community Power Hubs Program.
Fund recipients
Funds were awarded to organisations to establish and operate a Community Power Hub in their region and deliver renewable energy projects that were ready to implement.
