Independent Energy New Zealand (IENZ) has been working throughout 2024 with Invercargill Airport on a variety of projects to improve the energy efficiency of its buildings and plan for the future of flight. Invercargill is a rapidly growing destination for air travel and the Airport is currently planning the expansion of services to meet this demand. Palmerston North based IENZ were chosen by the Airport to assist in their energy management objectives due to their wide range of skills and access to specialist knowledge from partners Energenze and TBS Services. Projects have ranged from making the existing terminal more efficient, planning the upgrade of infrastructure to support growth and future proofing the airport for the expected move to hydrogen/ electric or biofuels based flight. To date over $200,000 in savings has been identified. “We look forward to benefitting from our ongoing collaboration with IENZ as our services change and grow” Julie Jack – Commercial and Business Development Manager.

🌞 Green energy together with local communities: A Leap Towards Sustainable Living! 🌞   We are thrilled to announce the successful closure of a #PPA for of one of the largest solar parks in the Netherlands. Zonnepark Fledderbosch is a groundbreaking project that not only produces green energy on an area bigger than 125 football fields, but also directly benefits the local communities. This innovative solar park is more than just an energy project; it's a commitment to sustainability, community empowerment, and a cleaner future.   𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗳𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 Our vision was clear from the start - to create an energy solution that the local population could directly benefit from. With this PPA, the solar park supplies renewable energy to 38,000 of homes, significantly reducing energy costs in this region and contributing to a substantial decrease of 56,000 tons of CO2 per annum. It’s a step towards a future where clean energy is accessible to all, ensuring that the benefits of green energy are felt directly in the community.   𝗔 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁 The success of this project would not have been possible without the collaborative spirit and dedication of our partners.

Positive developments are happening within Scotland's renewable energy landscape. The recent £100 million investment pledged for Aberarder Wind Farm heralds a wave of beneficial change. With 12 new turbines set to be erected across the Highlands, they'll be generating sufficient sustainable power for around 60,000 households by 2026. This initiative is a step closer to meeting carbon neutrality targets, while also promising to stimulate job creation in the vicinity of Strathnairn, near Inverness. The local community stands to gain not merely from greener energy but from key infrastructure enhancements, including the £2.5 million upgrade to Flichity Bridge. Additionally, the successful delivery of Aberarder will support SSE's committed Net Zero Acceleration Programme Plus. This undertaking goes beyond mere construction - it's about forging a robust, eco-friendly future and bolstering Scotland's contribution to the UK's drive for sustainable energy solutions. Anticipations are high for the project's culmination in 2026. #RenewableEnergy #ScotlandJobs #Aberarder #RecruitmentRedefined

Empowering communities is crucial for a successful green energy transition. This insightful article highlights the importance of engaging with local residents from the outset, ensuring they understand the benefits and are active participants in renewable energy projects. From Victoria's Wimmera Southern Mallee region to Hay Shire Council in New South Wales, examples abound of collaboration leading to progress. Let's heed these lessons and prioritize community involvement as we navigate towards a sustainable future. #CommunityEngagement #GreenEnergy #Sustainability
