Business owners and residents can learn how to slash their electricity bills by powering up with solar at three workshops in early May Jointly hosted by Eurobodalla Council and the South Coast Health and Sustainability Alliance (SHASA), the workshops will be led by an expert panel who can answer every question under the sun about setting up photovoltaic solar for business and households Speakers will include SHASA president Kathryn Maxwell, Council’s Sustainability Coordinator Mark Shorter, local solar installer Stephen Cornthwaite, and business owners who recently installed solar on their premises. Topics will include the benefits of solar power, battery storage, financial assistance available to those who do not want to pay for the system upfront and rebates. Council’s Sustainability Coordinator Mark Shorter said that while the workshops would focus on solar for business, the information was also relevant to residents considering installing solar at home. “There’s never been a better time to install solar power, and we really encourage businesses in particular to get along to the workshops,” he said. “As costs for grid electricity continue to rise the costs for installing solar power have fallen. Over 1.8 million Australian homes or businesses now have solar. It’s time to get on board.”
The community is invited to attend one of these free sessions to find out more.
