Borroloola Solar Homelands Project

The Borroloola Solar Homelands Project is an initiative of the Borroloola community in partnership with Original Power to repower homelands with renewable energy and support families to reconnect with Country.

“Being home and connected to country that is everything that anyone could ever dream of… It’s a blessing to be on Country.”
