Nillumbik, VIC blends renewable energy with emergency readiness in innovative stadium project
Nillumbik, VIC Innovative Stadium Project Renewable Energy
The council-owned Community Bank Stadium houses 333 solar panels capable of producing 100 kilowatts. Solar energy produced on-site is stored in a 100kWh battery system to decrease reliance on the grid. An LCD screen in a high-traffic area shows system performance along with bushfire conditions. Community Bank Stadium acts as a regional emergency center during natural disasters. Nillumbik's off-grid solar and battery system is the first of its kind in the world.
