Ready to electrify everything and cut your living costs?

Whether you're just curious or already committed, lock in Sunday 22 June for the Go Electric Open Day at Club Thirroul—a fun, informative, and inspiring event for households across the Illawarra.

With energy bills soaring and a growing appetite to shrink our carbon footprints, more people than ever are exploring solar, EVs, home batteries, and electric appliances. But let’s face it—there are still a lot of questions around cost, incentives, the latest tech, and when to take the plunge. That’s where this free community event comes in.

We’re bringing together experts, locals, and hands-on experiences to help make electrifying your home and lifestyle easier than ever.

What’s on at Go Electric Open Day:

Hear from Dr. Saul Griffith, live in conversation with Claire O'Rourke (Author of Together We Can), as they dive into his new book Plug In: The Electrification Handbook
Explore a range of EVs and e-mopeds and chat directly with local EV owners—get honest advice, not a sales pitch
Info sessions on solar, batteries, and household electrification including insights from the Electrify 2515 Community Pilot
Live induction cooking demo with local chef—plus a chance to sample the results!
Connect with local tradies and industry experts who can help you take the next steps
Kids activity - build and race your own solar car
Door prizes, exclusive offers, and more!

We’d love to see you there for this free community event.
