The Solar Armidale Project is a community-based project being organised by the Armidale Environment Coalition, an umbrella organisation of environment groups and individuals in Armidale. Member groups include: Armidale Air Quality Group, Armidale Tree Group, Citizens Wildlife Corridors, CycleSafe, The Environment Centre, and Greening Australia (Armidale).

The aims of the project are:

to promote increased use of solar energy as a means of home heating, in particular in the retrofitting of existing houses
to develop a network of local people with interest and experience in solar design applications, so that their knowledge can be shared with other members of the community
to build an information resource for the local community in solar retrofitting techniques, solar design, and energy efficiency

Why Use Solar Space Heating?

Enjoy a pollution free, renewable source of energy. Forget the particulates, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, and other air pollutants created by conventional heating.
Reduce your dependency on unstable fuel prices.
Reduce greenhouse gas emmissions
Enjoy free space heating after the system has paid for itself in reduced gas or electric heating bills.
Increase the resale value of your property.
