The City took part in Phase One, which collectively delivered about $34 million savings compared to market rates and offset 120,000 tonnes of Carbon.
With 50 Local Governments participating in Phase Two, WALGA has estimated that the new contract will deliver even greater levels of saving.
The Project promotes the development and use of renewable energy through the purchase of Synergy's Greenpower-accredited NaturalPower product.
This aligns with the City of Albany Corporate Power Plan and contributes to the transition of City-owned and managed facilities to 100% renewable power by 2030.
In 2020, WALGA began developing this Member initiated project which resulted in a complex Tender process. As the successful respondent, Synergy has worked in partnership with WALGA and 48 participating Local Governments during Phase One to supply WA-generated Carbon Offsets.
The City of Albany is one of 50 local governments signed up to Phase Two of WALGA's Sustainable Energy Supply Project commenced 1 April 2025.
