Community Energy Resilience: Campaign Consultation
Power Up Your Preparedness: We want your feedback!
As part of the #BetterTogether Community Energy Resilience initiative, we’re asking Australians to share their thoughts and ideas on how we can better prepare for power outages. Your input will help shape a nationwide effort to keep our communities safe and resilient during extreme weather events.
With extreme weather events becoming more frequent, power outages are no longer a matter of if, but when. Every Australian needs a plan to stay safe and resilient when the lights go out. The #BetterTogether Community Energy Resilience initiative is here to guide you through preparing for long-lasting power outages.
Through easy-to-follow steps, we’ll help you build a personalised plan that covers everything from communication strategies to keeping your home safe and comfortable.
Tell us what you think: Campaign concepts 1 and 2
We want to hear from YOU!
It’s never been more important for every Australian to have a power outage plan. Severe and unpredictable weather events are on the rise, meaning power outages will be more frequent—and longer. One moment you’re connected, the next you’re not. And when the power goes out, we all scramble—grabbing torches and checking our phones. But the next time, it could be for days, and that’s when preparation matters most.
Take just a few minutes to complete our survey and share your insights. Don’t forget to pass it along to your family, friends, and neighbours—together, we can help All Australians be more prepared when the power goes out!
