NEWCASTLE ON TRACK TO BECOME 100% RENEWABLE

A plan has been approved for Newcastle to source 100% of its electricity from renewables, based on the findings of a study commissioned by Council.

The study found residents would save millions of dollars over the next 25 years using renewables, whether directly or through a provider.

Council’s already committed to source 30% of its electricity from green alternatives by next year, but last night, it voted to go one step further.

The decision is timely, given its electricity contracts are due to expire on December 31.

According to its own data, 70% of Novocastrians support the move to renewables.
