Electrify 2515: Australia's First Community-led Electrification Pilot
Join us in pioneering a smarter, greener future with the Electrify 2515 Community Pilot, a groundbreaking initiative designed to help households reduce energy bills and cut emissions.
Spearheaded by passionate locals in partnership with Rewiring Australia, Brighte, and Endeavour Energy, the pilot will accelerate the electrification of homes in the north Illawarra 2515 postcode.
Our vision
To create a sustainable, electric future in a real community today. By supporting 500 homes with subsidies, cutting-edge technology, and expert guidance, we're empowering residents to make the switch to energy-efficient electric appliances.
As part of the pilot, participating residents will receive generous subsidies, through federal funding provided by Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA), towards purchasing electric household appliances and home batteries.
This initiative promises not only immediate benefits in terms of reduced energy costs but also long-term environmental impact.
Endeavour Energy will be assessing and monitoring the local grid during the pilot, generating insights about how to best optimise the network for all customers as we manage the smart energy transition.
Why electrify?
Because it's cheaper, cleaner, and better for our planet.
We aim to simplify the complex process of home electrification, providing critical research to help every Australian community transition smoothly to a smart, electric future.
Your choices, feedback, and energy data will play a vital role in shaping the national policies and practices that will drive this change forward.
We're excited to learn locally and think nationally, capturing valuable insights from the electrification journey.
