Mosman Rowers Secures Cbp2021 Funding

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—Speaker I want to congratulate the Mosman Rowers for their successful application to secure funds through the Community Building Partnership program 2021. This funding will allow the club to install brand new solar panels for more sustainable and environmentally friendly power. Mosman Rowers is a much-loved local club for sport and a place for our community to come together to dine and socialise. The club has been operating since 1911, and they are now leading the charge on sustainability. The installation of a 24 kW solar system will save 24.75 tonnes of CO2 per annum and significantly increase energy efficiency and reduce electricity costs by 11 per cent each year. I want to acknowledge the club's successful reopening after the latest lockdown and wish them all the best for a busy and successful summer. Congratulations again to President Kathrina Doran and the rest of the team at Mosman Rowers for securing this well‑deserved funding that will assist in delivering greener and more sustainable energy.
