Regional Newspaper notifications

As a part of Community Engagement we are running a series of simple notices across New England newspapers to ensure visibility of the project's proposal & progress.


These have been published in both the Inverell TImes and the Tenterfield Star in a mix of online and in print, with the majority being in the online format given the suspension of the print editions as a result of the COVID 19 Pandemic

Community engagement

encouraging local opportunity

Dumaresq Solar Farm will conduct a community engagement process commencing in October 2019 that both focuses on consultation with the community and importantly the encouragement of service providers and contractors to themselves engage with community and provide ongoing commercial opportunities


The Community Engagement Process will be in line with the Industry Best Practice Charter for Renewable Energy Developments as outlined by the Australian Clean Energy Council, and will include:


  • Providing information that is both balanced and objective on an ongoing basis.  This will be done via both direct meetings with key stakeholders, consultation with the wider community and periodic newsletters outlining the progress of the Project
  • Community meetings to both outline the scope of the Project and hear first hand feedback that Community members would like to provide
  • Advertisements and media activity to ensure clear and consistent profiling of the Project in the local community takes place
  • The development and publication of an ongoing Frequent Asked Questions document
  • The use of social media applications including Twitter and Instagram to provide the latest information to interested parties - all news on new developments is being posted


Our detailed Community Engagement Policy will be published shortly, and our thinking has been contributed to by achieving a number of things in October / November including :


  1. Meeting with Leadership of Inverell Local Council to understand their ambitions, pressing needs of community, etc.
  2. An initial contribution of support to the "Fierce Female Farmer" movement based out of Inverell
  3. Discussions with landowners and other local stakeholders on potential commercial opportunities that would suit local skill and commercial supply


This initial work has been important in the overall development of a sustainable Community Engagement Plan.
