both are eager to secure their electrical power for eternity.

advanced than Tatura having already made serious inroads into its energy needs
with the recent official opening of a its solar farm
Much is presently happening in Tatura with a project to both
create and secure the town’s energy future

Australian communities.
In Tathra Australia’s first completed community-owned solar
farm is now a reality helping to power the Tathra treatment plant.
The 30kW solar farm is an initiative of community climate
action group Clean Energy for Eternity, Inc and consists of 120 panels of 250W
capacity arranged to form the letters of IMAGINE. It is clearly visible from
the air on the approach path to Merimbula airport.
