Turbine power, solar LED lights and electricity savings for Gold Coast City Council.

The Challenge

The Gold Coast City Council sought to enhance the safety and accessibility of the Broadwater Parklands while adhering to their sustainability goals. Traditional grid-powered lighting systems posed high costs and environmental concerns, necessitating a more eco-friendly and cost-effective solution.

Solution

Aura Clean Energy proposed an innovative renewable energy lighting system. This system included the installation of 80 self-sufficient solar lights and 4 hybrid wind and solar systems. By harnessing both solar and wind energy, Aura ensured a consistent and reliable source of illumination throughout the parklands. The system was designed to be resilient and efficient, with no dependence on the traditional power grid.

Result

The deployment of Aura Clean Energy’s lighting solution at Broadwater Parklands resulted in significant cost and energy savings. The parklands now save in electricity costs due to the self-sufficient and hybrid lighting systems. This project not only improved the park’s safety and accessibility with reliable nighttime lighting but also demonstrated a substantial reduction in carbon emissions.

The hybrid renewable energy system showcased the potential for sustainable public infrastructure, setting a precedent for future urban development projects.

The Broadwater Parklands lighting project by Aura Clean Energy is a testament to the benefits of hybrid renewable energy systems in public infrastructure, offering both economic and environmental advantages.

  • Cost Efficiency: Lowered energy costs significantly, benefiting the council’s budget.
  • Consistent Illumination: Utilised both solar and wind energy for uninterrupted lighting regardless of weather conditions
  • Enhanced Safety and Accessibility: Reliable lighting improved the usability of the park during nighttime.
  • Sustainability: Aligned with the council’s environmental goals, promoting green energy solutions.
