Illawarra Branch

The Illawarra branch started operation in October 2016 with a small meeting of local Renew members. Since then we have run a number of successful activities and participated in the UOW Global Climate Change Week activities.

You can download our Zero Emissions submission to Wollongong City Council based on our meeting here.
We have also produced a revised version incorporating details of Power Purchase Agreements. You can read the revised version (April 2020) here.

Explore the novel proposal to build a local PV-Community-Scale-Battery here. Some members of the Renew Illawarra Branch are leading this project.

The Illawarra Branch generally meets at UOW Innovation Campus (Squires Way, North Wollongong) – ITAMS Building.

We meet on the unceded lands of the Dharawal, Wadi Wadi, and Yuin people.

We organise a number of activities during the year and assist with Sustainable House Day.
