RE-ALLIANCE PLACES REGIONAL RENEWAL AT THE CENTRE OF THE RENEWABLE ENERGY SHIFT.

Rural and regional Australians know that the shift to renewable energy offers us once-in-a-generation opportunities – but to fully harness them, it’s essential that we’re at the centre of this shift. We want renewable energy to be done well, and for it to strengthen and renew our communities. That's why RE-Alliance starts with the needs of local communities, collaborates with industry to deliver social outcomes, and advocates for meaningful benefits for regional communities through government policy.

 

 

What are the options when wind, solar and battery projects reach retirement? Who’s responsible, and what rights and protections exist for landholders? How recyclable are renewable energy materials?

Our toolkit 'Refurbishment, repowering or retirement. What happens when renewables approach end of life?' provides clear, factual information for landholders, communities and local councils.
