EARTHCHAT: The Euroa Microgrid Demonstration Initiative

Updated: Feb 19, 2022

18 & 19 February 2022:


Our Strathbogie Shire neighbours, Shirley Saywell and Kate Auty will discuss the exciting Euroa Microgrid Demonstration Initiative which now delivers clean energy to six businesses, five of which are operating battery technology.

They will tell us about how they renegotiated a grant to deliver a solar array to tenants in apartments in Euroa’s main street.

And great news that the Avenel community is also on a clean energy pathway. Jim Billings will talk about that work at their town hall meeting this weekend, on 20 February.


Indigo Power will also dial in to discuss retailing renewables in the north east.


EarthChat on 103.9 Seymour FM on Friday at 10am, repeated on Saturday at 8am.

Listen up and get fired up
