Can a school use their National Solar Schools funding solely on a solar power system?
Yes, your school can use its entire grant amount on installing a solar power system. However, most schools will gain a greater benefit from installing energy efficiency measures as well as a solar power system. Schools are encouraged to seek an energy efficiency audit and carefully plan their project taking into account all the eligible items available. Your state or territory education department may be able to help with an energy efficiency audit. Alternatively, the Australian Sustainable Schools Initiative website has links to self audit tools.
