First Nations Collaboration

We are committed to building respectful and genuine partnerships with First Nations communities throughout the lifecycle of our renewable energy projects. This includes protecting cultural heritage, supporting economic participation, and fostering opportunities for collaboration and knowledge sharing.

How We Engage

Best Practice - We strive towards leading practice based on the Clean Energy Council’s ‘Leading Practice Principles: First Nations and Renewable Energy Projects’ guide
Early Conversations – We seek to engage with Traditional Custodians from the earliest stages of a project to listen, learn, and ensure that voices and aspirations are integrated into project planning.
Cultural Heritage Protection – We work closely with First Nations groups to identify, respect, and protect sites of cultural significance.
Opportunities and Benefits – We aim to create pathways for employment, training, and procurement opportunities that deliver lasting social and economic benefits for First Nations peoples.
Ongoing Collaboration – Engagement does not end once a project is built. We are committed to fostering ongoing relationships that continue throughout operations and beyond.

Working Together for a Sustainable Future

Renewable energy projects have an opportunity to contribute to Australia’s clean energy transition in a way that is inclusive and respectful. By partnering with First Nations peoples, we can ensure projects are developed in a way that honours culture, cares for Country, and creates shared value for generations to come.
