Facilitate your community with actionable climate solutions
Your communities – households and local businesses – are looking for ways to tackle cost of living pressures, and reduce their emissions.
The window to limit global warming to 1.5°C appears to have closed. The scientists tell us we have a 10-year window to rapidly reduce carbon emissions, to limit warming to 2°C.
40% of our emissions are from buildings. Given an increasingly renewable grid, gas appliances are the new frontier.
Building electrification is a proven solution, and ready to scale, but reaching zero emissions means replacing gas appliances in 50 homes every working hour until 2050 (in Australia, alone). We also have ~2.6 million small and medium-sized businesses to support.
You can make a tangible difference. Rapidly helping them to electrify their homes and businesses.
