Community

At Octopus Australia, we’re committed to building meaningful and positive relationships with the community where we operate. We prioritise building respectful, long-lasting community connections and creating benefits in our local areas.

Our community-focused approach shapes our benefit-sharing programs, tailored to each region’s unique context and values. We’re keen to hear from anyone who has a bright idea for community-based projects we can support which are aligned to our vision.

More information will be provided to community organisations towards the end of development.

Octopus Australia is also exploring partnerships with local educational providers to grow the understanding of battery storage and further support Australia’s transition to a clean energy future.
