Powering Communities Program
The Powering Communities Program provides grants to not-for-profit community organisations to improve their energy efficiency practices and technologies. This aims to reduce energy use, improve energy productivity and reduce carbon emissions.
The program will assist organisations to:
- upgrade equipment to reduce energy consumption
- undertake energy management activities and assessments, such as energy systems assessments and feasibility studies
- invest in energy monitoring and management systems
- invest in on-site renewable energy and solar-connected batteries.
The grant amount will be up to 100 per cent of eligible project expenditure. Grants will be between $5000 and $12,000. You must fund any expenditure over the grant amount they are awarded. You should complete your project by 30 June 2022.
Not-for-profit community organisations can be nominated by their Federal Member to apply for grants. Contact your Federal Member for more information about how to be invited to apply.
Open now and closes Monday, 20 September 2021.
