Australian environmental company helps householders reduce carbon footprint
Green Invest Ltd, an Australian environmental solutions company, will provide audit and facilitation services to help more than 400,000 householders across metropolitan Victoria reduce their carbon footprint.
Through its Green Plumbers and Sustainable Footprint business divisions, Green Invest has won a tender to reduce the energy consumption of householders in the Western Port region (WPGA), incorporating the councils of Shire of Baw Baw, Bass Coast Shire Council, Cardinia Shire Council, City of Casey, Frankston City Council, City of Kingston and the Mornington Peninsula Shire.
Sustainable Footprint will provide green assessments under the federal government’s Green Loans scheme and Green Plumbers will provide facilitation services for eligible green technologies.
Through an alliance with EnviroGroup, Green Invest will also help to reduce energy consumption of homes across three municipalities - Maribyrnong City Council, Hobson Bay City Council and Moonee Valley City Council - that are members of the Western Alliance for Greenhouse Action (WAGA) in Melbourne’s west.
Green Invest's offering includes supplying environmental assessment, recommended water and energy upgrades as well as the development and broking of environmental credits.
With over 7000 Green Plumbers already trained and accredited nationally in the installation of green technologies and with a further 2500 plumbers forecasted to be trained by year-end 2010, Green Plumbers is said to be the largest facilitator of plumbing services of its kind in Australia.
