Electrify Bouddi launch party

Many businesses at Hardys Bay have solar panels but only 15 per cent of homes in the Bouddi area have them

Electrify Bouddi is encouraging everyone in the Bouddi community to take the next step in the journey towards a zero emissions future and will hold a launch party on May 4.

The not-for-profit community association generates and shares reliable information, knowledge and guidance to develop individual and community-level energy solutions.

“We have already learned our community has a strong desire to address the challenges of navigating multiple sources of information and the limitations of acting individually,” a spokesperson said.

“We are all finding it uplifting to work together to make sure our community benefits from the rapid and comprehensive decentralisation of energy systems in Australia.

“The association is building a network of engaged community members to offer inspiration and opportunities to take positive action.”

The group will hold a launch party from 11am-3pm on Saturday, May 4, at Killcare Surf Club, which will help people make a start in lowering their energy bills and reducing carbon pollution.

There will be informative talks, including one from keynote speaker Kristen MacDonald from Rewiring Australia, who will discuss how electrification fits into the national picture and the role of communities and households in driving change.

Federal Member for Robertson Gordon Reid and State Member for Gosford Liesl Tesch will share their own stories of climate change, and what governments are doing to support communities to work together across the Central Coast to reduce carbon pollution.

There will be information stalls with local installers and suppliers of solar, heat pump water heaters and induction stoves and an opportunity to talk to EV owners to find out what it’s really like to drive an EV.

The event will also include sustainable games for children, live music including renowned songstress Melinda Schneider, a youth street performance, art, fun and food.
