Our Community Solar programs support local communities by donating one percent of project revenues to community groups and schools in the form of free solar. The more solar we install, the more we can give away – so spread the word! Our latest community bonus installations are Chewton Primary School in Mt Alexander Shire, Swan Hill Theatre Group and Swan Hill SES – and we just installed one on Kyneton Caring, an amazing not-for-profit in the Macedon Ranges Shire that provides practical support (like a food bank) to those in need. If you’re involved with a community group or school who could do with some free solar, get in touch with us at info@cvga.org.au.
