Project story…
The Nannup CRC 10kW of solar PV was installed in July 2015. They paid $2,000 of the up front cost and a CORENA loan of $15,440 (8.85kW) covered the rest. This project was funded in just 2 months, largely due to a decision to temporarily use $7,000 from the Big Win funding stream to put that money to good use sooner than otherwise would have been possible (since repaid as shown below).
They finished paying back their loan in October 2019, in just over 4 years. They repaid a bit extra for their first repayment then set up auto-recurring payments of $900, resulting in a perfect record of payments arriving exactly on time every quarter.
