19 April 2024 - Rewiring Noosa

Thanks Noosa Today again for our regular column in your paper.

Noosa Shire is leading the charge in a sustainable revolution, with households across the region making the switch to all-electric appliances and cars powered by clean electricity. The shift is not only slashing household expenses by up to 50 per cent, compared to those relying on fossil fuels, but it's also making a significant positive impact on the climate.

This sustainable approach, dubbed "Electrify Everything", is a key strategy in combatting climate change, reducing our carbon footprint and saving a lot of money. It's a step-by-step guide to household electrification, providing residents with practical advice on how to transition to a more sustainable, low-carbon lifestyle.

Zero Emissions Noosa, Inc. supported by Noosa Council, is producing an "Rewiring Nosa - Electrify Everything" guide covering eight different technologies and strategies, including rooftop solar PV, heat pump hot water systems, pool pumps and heaters, home batteries, electric vehicles, and energy monitoring and control systems. Through a series of community engagement activities and articles in Noosa Today ZEN Inc. will provide detailed information on the costs, savings and benefits of each technology, helping residents make informed decisions about their energy usage.

“We think Noosa residents are ready to power up their community’s future with sustainable energy” said ZEN chair Anne Kennedy.
