"In a ground-breaking move, the Electrify 2515 Community Pilot has secured $5.4
million from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) to help run a
world-first electrification project in a small coastal region south of Sydney.

The project, which has been shepherded from idea to reality by the community
energy group, Electrify 2515, with the backing of Rewiring Australia, will see
500 homes in the 2515 postcode north of Wollongong retrofitted with electric
hot water systems, induction cooktops, reverse cycle air conditioners, home
batteries, and smart energy devices to monitor and optimize their energy use.

But beyond the benefits the project will deliver for 500 of the 4500 homes in
the 2515 postcode, the pilot is a bold attempt to chart the future of household
electrification across Australia."
