The Adelaide Hills Council is on track to meet its goal of 100% renewable energy by 2024 after more than doubling the size of its solar power array.
Roof-mounted solar panels on top of the Coventry Library and at the Heathfield Depot have been replaced with larger systems and a new 12.5kW ground mounted system has been installed at the Birdwood Community Wastewater Management System site, bumping up the council’s solar panel power from 61kW to about 141kW.
Solar puts council on track for target
Adelaide Hills Mayor Jan-Claire Wisdom hopes the council’s goal of 100% renewable energy by 2024 will demonstrate the importance of going green.
