About Us

The Indigo Power Foundation was established to provide expertise, guidance and knowledge-sharing for community renewable energy groups in regional north-east Victoria who want to create community-owned renewable energy projects.

We want to be the go-to resource for community groups seeking expertise and support for renewable energy or emissions reduction projects. We will provide advice, networking opportunities, examples of best practices, and support to find funding for community-driven projects.

We recently received DGR1 status from the ATO and are ready to start making change happen!
