Achieving big goals with small steps & conversations
With a lofty goal of 100% renewable energy for their town, Juliette Milbank from Totally Renewable Yackandandah (TRY) shares her insights on the journey.
TRY realised that to achieve their goal, they needed to ensure that every project addressed a community need or want, as well as tick the two major attributes of reducing emissions & contributing towards the 100% renewables mission.
With lots of conversations, collaborations & community engagement and a focus on smaller bite size projects TRY has been able, at this point, to achieve 60% renewable energy in Yackandandah!
The approach taken by TRY to bring about their goal has been innovative – with community needs always at the forefront. Listen in to learn more!
