Our energy efficiency initiatives so far

Nationwide solar installation

We install on-site solar systems at our sites across Australia. Over 71 sites we have 23,000+ panels, enough to power 1,400 homes.

LED lighting

We continue to install LED lights at industrial sites that deliver a significant reduction in electricity use and carbon emissions.

Better energy efficiency

A range of energy saving initiatives across our buildings and facilities deliver both commercial and environmental benefits, reducing electricity usage and carbon impact.

Renewable electricity

We’re a founding partner in the Melbourne Renewable Energy Project (MREP), which has brought together 14 organisations.  

Under a long-term power purchase agreement, each member has committed to purchasing a combined 88 GWh of electricity per year, from the Crowlands Wind Farm.  

The 39 turbine wind farm has a total capacity equivalent to powering 17,600 households and saving 96,800 tonnes in greenhouse gas emissions.

We also purchase renewable electricity for our small sites, such as Corporate Post Offices, and are focused on exploring the most impactful way of meeting our target to invest in 100% renewable electricity by 2025, as part of our 2025 Sustainability Roadmap.
