FREE Entry!

Join us on Sunday June 23rd for the Smart Energy Expo, presented by Climate Action Burwood-Canada Bay, in partnership with MLC School, Burwood Council, the Smart Energy Council and the Australian Electric Vehicles Association.

Held at MLC School in Burwood, the Smart Energy Expo will give you the chance to learn more about renewable energy, electric vehicles and electrification in general, and the role these play in reducing emissions and solving the problem of climate change.

You can talk to locals who have electrified their homes and vehicles and to representatives from Burwood and Canada Bay Councils on what they are doing to save energy use and cut emissions. Also listen to experts about the benefits of renewable energy and electric vehicles – benefits for the country and for your own home.
