National Solar Schools Program

Braybrook College received funding from the Australian Government for the National Solar Schools Program.  Braybrook College received additional funding from the Victorian Government’s Solar in Schools Initiative. Our solar panels are installed on the school roof and are generating electricity for the school. Excess power will be fed back to the grid.

You can see how much power we are generating at this link.
