President’s Report Mar 2025

Treading water. You know when you are in deep water, and you need to keep your head above the waterline. That is how I would describe our current status.

As I described in the February newsletter, we lost our commercial delivery partner and we need to find another partner to move forward with the battery. Fortunately, the grant funding support team at the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (DEECA) are very understanding of the situation.

We are actively exploring other parties who could become our delivery partner. The outcome may influence how we deliver on our vision statement. We will provide an update to all our members at the AGM on Monday 31st March. The meeting will be held face-to-face at the Gleeson Room at the Darebin Parklands commencing at 7.30pm. If you are a paid member, I encourage you to attend the meeting.
