Local Government Supports Solar Power use on the Sunshine Coast

With the implementation of solar bonuses and schemes in the last few years the installation ofsolar panels on the Sunshine Coast increased massively and since 2010 renewable energy capacity on the coast has risen significantly. The financial assistance of the federal government of Australia has made solar panels or solar hot water on the Sunshine Coast cheaper and readily available even for lower income earners.
The regional council of the Sunshine Coast has also played a vital role in the success of the local solar industry. Though a relatively small region and less progressive compared to famous cities like Sydney and Melbourne, the Sunshine Coast is to be congratulated for its incentives which has allowed it to become one of the leading green and sustainable regions in the country.
One of the most successful programs implemented to date was the EcoBiz program, which is run under the Department of Environment and Resource Management (DERM) signature partnership program. EcoBiz aims to educate business owners about how to run a profitable business while still preserving the environment. The basis of the program teaches business owners how to get the most from their resources, and do more with less which is one of the core value of sustainability.
