Zero Emissions Noosa (ZEN), the not-for-profit community organisation helping the Shire work towards net zero emissions, has entered into its first formal MOU with a commercial organisation. EnergyFlex, an award-winning Australian energy technology company.
This MOU brings together ZEN’s community leadership and EnergyFlex’s innovative, Consumer Data Right (CDR)–enabled technology to empower households and businesses to cut energy bills and carbon emissions — without the need for any new hardware.
By making smarter use of existing smart-meter data, the EnergyFlex app helps typical households and SMEs save $500–$1,000 annually while reducing around 2 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions per year. Through the collaboration, ZEN will help raise awareness of the app’s benefits in the community, supporting both cost-of-living relief and local climate action.
“This is a first for ZEN — working with a commercial organisation that shares our mission to accelerate Noosa’s transition to net zero,” said Anne Kennedy, ZEN Inc. Chair. “EnergyFlex brings technology that puts power back into the hands of households and businesses, and we are proud to support its rollout in the Noosa Shire community.”
“We’re thrilled to collaborate with Zero Emissions Noosa,” said Garry Harding, CEO and Founder of EnergyFlex. “This collaboration shows how not-for-profits and technology companies can work hand-in-hand to deliver measurable community outcomes — lower energy costs, reduced emissions, and greater energy literacy.”
“The reason that ZEN Inc. is collaborating with EnergyFlex is because this is a free, local, well tested product. It helps households and businesses track their energy use, so they can work out how to change their energy use to save money on their energy bills.,” said Anne.
