STAR Water 100% Green Power

STAR Water’s headquarter in Sydney is 100% Green Power. GreenPower is a voluntary government accredited program that enables energy providers to purchase renewable energy . It is a joint initiative of the ACT, NSW, SA, QLD, VIC and WA governments and guarantees that the renewable electricity we buy from energy suppliers meets stringent environmental standards.

Examples of generation which is not allowed in the scheme includes:

– Hydro power where significant river diversions have taken place as part of the hydro station being built
– Biomass using native rainforests
– Coal seam gas
– all types of non-renewable generation including coal fired, natural gas, oil, and nuclear
