Repower One is a 99kW community solar power system on the roof of the Shoalhaven Heads Bowling and Recreation Club, located at the mouth of the beautiful Shoalhaven River, between the mountains and the sea.
The Project
Repower One is a landmark community energy project, being the first community-owned-solar power system of its kind in Australia. At almost 100kW, it will also be the country’s largest solar power system financed by everyday investors. 20% of the system was funded and owned by Shoalhaven Heads Bowling and Recreation Club, with the remaining 80% funded and owned by community shareholders.
It is the culmination of 15 months of hard work by Repower Shoalhaven volunteers in developing a viable model for community solar.
