Objective: Transition to net zero emissions

An energy-smart City

Local government has a key role to play in contributing to national and international emissions reduction targets. In recognition of this, the City has set targets and a clear direction to reduce carbon emissions. We all have our part to play and the City will support our community and work with other levels of government to take action to reduce emissions and create a more sustainable future.

Strategy: How will we get there? • Improve the City’s energy management and maximise energy efficiency • Increase the City’s generation, storage and use of renewable energy supplies • Support, engage and guide our community to transition to net zero emissions.

Key informing frameworks and plans • Sustainable Energy Action Plan.
