The Council's commitment to establish an Energy Advice Centre was shaped by a long and strong local history of leading community-based sustainable-energy action, including the provision of energy-efficiency services and advocacy for sustainable political, economic and social change.
The successful Provider(s) will be CEC accredited solar retailers who will be selected on the basis of: service offering, customer service, capacity and locality, quality and warranty of system products, understanding and compatibility with the AEF customer focused business model, ability to commit to timely and accurate reporting, as well as pricing.

Since February 2013, AEF has facilitated just under 3000 residential solar PV installation sales totalling 11,728 kW of installed solar.
