Schools across the Noosa Shire are utilising their real time energy data to learn about energy efficiency through Zero Emissions Noosa’s exciting initiative Race to Zero.
The program utilises a mix of direct curriculum teaching with week by week lesson plans and a gamified approach which shows students how their real time energy decisions impact on emissions.
ZEN President Vivien Griffin said, “Schools are high energy consumers and the chance to curb wasteful energy use is important to the goal of reducing emissions across Noosa shire.“
HAVING solar installed on our homes is a great way to reduce our energy bills, but people in households at the lower end of the income scale are often disadvantaged as they are unable to install solar due to the cost.
Zero Emissions Noosa (ZEN), is supporting g people at the lower end of the income scale to have a small solar system installed at no cost to them.
“Low income households are often disadvantaged as they are unable to afford to install solar due to the cost” said Mr Lambie.
On Sunday 4 May, there will be Sunshine Coast sustainable homes Noosa, Woombye and Reesville that are open to the public.
Sustainable House Day is an annual event run by Renew that provides the opportunity to explore some of region’s most inspiring homes, and learn from the people who designed them, built them, and live in them.
Zero Emissions Noosa Inc (ZEN) is partnering with RENEW for the open homes, webinars and forums in May to provide advice and resources to help people live more sustainably.

Over a few Saturdays in late February and early March conversations buzzed and innovative ideas for Noosa’s transport future were sparked. The events facilitated by ZEN Inc brought together community members in Noosaville and Cooroy to discuss priorities and strategies to reduce car usage and transport emissions in the Noosa Shire.
