Green Energy Milestone Achieved
A comprehensive two-year initiative by MidCoast Council to transition five key water and sewer sites to renewable energy has reached successful completion.
Solar Panels Powering Key Sites
Over 400 solar panels have been strategically deployed across Tuncurry Recycled Water Treatment Plant, Bulahdelah Water Treatment Plant, Tea Gardens Sewer Pump Station 13, and sewage treatment plants in Coopernook and Manning Point.
Financial and Environmental Gains
The installation not only significantly reduces the Council’s reliance on non-renewable energy but is also expected to pay for itself within five years, ensuring ongoing cost savings. This move aligns with the Council’s commitment to achieving 100% renewable energy for all operations by 2040.
