Solar Cities
The Australian Government’s $94 million Solar Cities Program brings governments, industry, business and community together – making the best use of everyone’s efforts, ideas and expertise to secure Australia’s energy future.
The $42 million Central Victoria Solar City project is funded by the Australian Government through the Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts, the Central Victoria Solar City Consortium and other supporting organisations.
Consortium members include Bendigo and Adelaide Bank, Central Victorian Greenhouse Alliance (CVGA), Origin, Powercor and ZC02e, the commercial entity set up by CVGA to manage the project. The Victorian Government, through Sustainability Victoria and the Sustainability Fund, is also a key funding contributor. Fourteen local municipalities in Central Victoria support the project.
Bendigo and Adelaide Bank is taking part in Solar Cities because we’re keen to play a role in addressing environmental issues. We are doing this by providing our customers and the wider communities with simple, practical, straight forward solutions that add up to a cleaner, greener and more sustainable future for everyone.
Our sponsorship of the Central Victorian Solar City program not only includes financial support and lending facilities but the support of marketing and community engagement activities unique to the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Group.
