Go Electric

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—and more exciting—than ever.

What’s on at Go Electric Open Day:

• Hear from Dr. Saul Griffith, live in conversation with Sarah Aubrey (Electrify This) , as they dive into his new book Plug In: The Electrification Handbook 

• Explore a range of EVs and chat directly with local EV owners—get honest advice, not a sales pitch

• Info sessions on solar, batteries, and EVs, including insights from the Electrify 2515 Community Pilot

• Live cooking demo with induction appliances—plus a chance to sample the results!

• Connect with local tradies and industry experts who can help you take the next steps

• E-bike test rides and info on subscription options

• Door prizes, exclusive offers, and more!

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