Online Launch of First Nations Clean Energy Network

First Nations Clean Energy Launch: Webinar Zoom Link

The First Nations Clean Energy Network will ensure First Nations people play a central role and harness the opportunities from Australia’s renewable energy boom.

Join us for an online zoom Launch of the Network, from 4-5pm (CST), Wednesday 17 November 2021.

What will the Network do? The Network will bring together research, expertise, resources, coordination and support mechanisms to build the capacity of First Nations communities, businesses and enterprises to embrace the renewables revolution and play a central role in its development.

Working together, the Network will see First Nations people exert our power and strategically position ourselves to ensure energy production is secure, accessible and sustainable for generations to come.

We’re already on our way! Over the last two years, Original Power has been laying the groundwork for the Network, convening a series of stakeholder roundtables, holding discussions with industry experts and practitioners, and establishing a high level steering group.

At the same time, we’ve been doing work nationally meeting with MP’s, industry groups, investors and companies. There is a lot of interest across the sector to ensure we are shaping the way renewables can and should be delivered. We’ve also learnt a lot from on ground delivery of clean energy projects in the NT, from household solar to the commencement of a feasibility study for a microgrid in Borroloola.

We’re thrilled we can now launch the network, so we can work with you to develop this innovative and dynamic network as the clean energy industry rapidly expands.

Original Power is a community-focused, Aboriginal organisation that builds the collective power of our people and backs our leadership, skills and capacity to genuinely achieve self-determination in our community and on country.
