About the organisation

Organisation Name : Moreland Energy Foundation Ltd
The Moreland Energy Foundation Ltd (MEFL) is a not-for-profit organisation, committed to accelerating the energy transition by empowering communities to take action. The future of energy will look radically different to energy today, and so we are working hard to ensure communities play a meaningful part in this transition and no one gets left behind. Established in 2000 by the Moreland City Council, after the privatisation of the electricity market in Victoria, today we operate nationally as a trusted educator, partner, advisor and service provider. Our organisation delivers products and services that create, demonstrate and share clear transition pathways to a zero carbon society, and increase energy efficiency and investment in renewable energy in Australia. Our job is to build partnerships that demonstrate what is possible, to give the right advice, and make sure people have access to the information and technology they need to take action. Our work is delivered through large scale programs, local council programs, grants, partnerships and directly to the community.
