Community

Community sponsorship

The Community Sponsorship Program is part of ENGIE’s commitment to supporting the local community and sharing the benefits of the Project.  

The target community for the Program includes community groups, projects / programs or facilities (Not for Profit*) that are located within or provide a direct benefit to the community within a 20km radius of the Project.

Funding applications must satisfy one of the following:  

  • Enhance or promote tourism, arts or culture in the local community  

  • Promote sustainability or enhance the local environment

  • Contribute to or improve education and training in the local community

  • Contribute to or improve socio-economic conditions in the local community  

Community Benefits

Nationwide, the transition to a greater mix of low emission renewable energy sources will provide cleaner energy for households and businesses. 

For the local community, The Plains Renewable Energy Park project will provide a range of direct and indirect economic benefits including increased local employment and contractor opportunities, with increased spending and activity in the local economy.

As the proposal progresses and in consultation with the community, additional opportunities to provide benefits to the local community will be developed.

Provide your feedback

The team will continue to engage with the local community and other key stakeholders to capture valuable local feedback to help shape the project and maximise benefits to the community. This feedback, along with more detailed ecological assessments and a range of specialist studies will be incorporated into the submission of the EIS.
