Community Benefits
While the project is being developed to create and provide renewable energy, a range of benefits to the local community of Narrandera. With a focus on hiring locally, and utilising local products, the region will see a range of economic benefits be delivered.
- Local jobs of both skilled and unskilled labour hire will be available
- Boost for local small business across the entertainment and hospitality industries
- Local sports clubs will likely see a growth in membership
- Local light engineering businesses may be utilised across the project
- Proposed bus transport to bring labour to site, reducing the impact on local traffic
- With food & beverage supplied on-site, local suppliers will likely see a boost in business
- With accommodation to be supplied to those from out of the area, local hotels, motels and B&B’s will likely see an increase in long-term guests
- With up to 450 staff employed during peak construction of the project, many local facilities will also see an increase in business
