Investing in Gippsland's biodiversity
Each year Orsted match-funds our sponsorship of the Gippsland New Energy Conference with a donation to a local regional initiative.
As industry and community gathers in Traralgon to discuss the emerging opportunities in Gippsland’s rapidly evolving clean energy sector, we’re keen to share our commitment with local projects as we help establish Gippsland’s future offshore wind industry.
In 2023, our donation to Maffra and Districts Landcare Network helped them run workshops and develop resources teaching local farmers how to enhance the health of their farm dams. Ørsted’s contribution went towards covering the e-DNA sampling used to assess changes made to farm dams that would enhance water quality, stock health and increase biodiversity.
We matched our GNEC sponsorship fee again last year, donating to SciencePlay Kids (www.scienceplaykids.com.au) – a STEM initiative providing teaching materials to schools in Morwell to support lesson plans on sustainability.
Ørsted will announce this year’s recipient of grant funding at this year’s GNEC in Traralgon.
