Project story…

We originally expected this project would take longer than most of our projects to pay for itself (7.5 years) but Greensbushes CRC received some extra funding and they chose to pay back our loan in full after making just 3 of their quarterly repayments. Since then they of course have had lower operating costs than prior to the solar installation, and we’ve been able to use their early repayment to help fund subsequent projects.

* The CO2 figures are very approximate. The subsequent projects assisted by funds originally donated to this project have been and continue to be implemented at widely different places and times at which different carbon intensity factors apply.

This project is now fully funded – Thank you!
