Solar donation powers Goondir health services
Southwest Queensland Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community-controlled primary health organisation Goondir is harnessing the power of Mother Nature to help care for community health, with a recent donation of solar panels to power its operations.
The donation from Origin Energy included three solar systems made up of about 190 panels, along with batteries and inverters and will be installed at Goondir’s clinics at St George, Oakey and Dalby.
Goondir Health Services Chairman, Gary White said, “This renewable energy upgrade will cut our carbon footprint, lower electricity costs and free up more funds for vital health and community programs
“The donation supports the long-term sustainability of our services and will help ensure Goondir’s clinics and community centres can keep operating reliably for the communities that depend on them.”
Goondir CEO Floyd Leedie said, “Running a holistic model of care can be very costly as it is more than just treating illnesses; we are supporting people in every aspect of their lives.”
“From our clinical services to our wellbeing programs that assists us in addressing health and the social determinants of health – everything we do is about empowering individuals and strengthening our communities.
“The more sustainable our organisation becomes, the more we can empower individuals and strengthen our communities.”
Origin General Manager, Supply and Technology Aleta Nicoll said, “We’re proud to support initiatives that contribute to the health and wellbeing of these communities.
“Donating this equipment is a great way to support the transition to renewable energy and help strengthen vital health services like those Goondir provides.”
