Let’s face it, power bills aren’t getting any cheaper, and we all know we could be doing that little bit more to help reduce our impact on the planet.
That’s why Climate Wave Enterprises is very happy to have created the Eco Challenge project in partnership with Coefficiency & Maceco. An initiative that sees you, as an event organiser, able to create a sustainable energy legacy for your chosen community organisation.
Please watch this short video for an easy to understand explanation of the step by step process towards energy savings.
Sustainable Living is our Future
Going solar makes perfect sense. It is a free and pure source of sustainable power, unlike the common practices that continue to pollute our planet, leaving us with devastating environmental & social issues.
Not only can it save you a fortune in power bills, it can also reduce your carbon footprint, meaning you’re doing something good and worthwhile for both yourself and the environment.
What are Eco Challenge Events?
Eco Challenge events are family friendly surfing lifestyle days staged with the aim of assisting Surfrider Foundation Australia branches with fundraising, and connecting with their local community.
All events comply with sustainable event management guidelines and promote eco-friendly surfing products & services. If surf conditions of the day allow, a wooden surfboard expression session competition is also held.
How Does it Work?
During the planning phase of your event, simply nominate a local non-profit community organisation to receive a solar installation for a building they own or lease. Our team will then organise with them, free of charge, an energy audit that will form the basis of the Eco Challenge.
Once the audit is complete, and their energy needs quantified, our specialists will custom design a solar panel installation to suit the organisation’s property, budget, and investment goals.
We’ll then arrange for the solar system to be installed and all necessary paperwork to be completed. Each quarter the organisation will receive a report outlining the savings that have been made and the return deposited directly into their account.
Eco Challenge Recipient Case Study
Solar panels on the roof of Kawana SLSC
Kawana Waters SLSC is one such community organisation that has benefited from an Eco Challenge event.Choosing to lease their system, and with minimal upfront investment, the club was able to install 200 solar panels across their property in Buddina.
They’ll now enjoy reduced power bills for many years, preserving cash flow, and diverting funds that previously went to power companies, back into to the club and community. It’s a true win win!
Recently I was contacted by Climate Wave Enterprises to consider the possibility of holding Surfrider Foundation’s Eco Challenge sustainable event at Kawana Waters SLSC. In conjunction, the event was to leave a green legacy for the Club by installing solar power system to assist with our ever increasing spend on electricity.
After due process, we are extremely happy to announce that Kawana Waters SLSC are not only going solar, but also have a legacy to future generations.

Eco Challenge is for Everyone
The great news is that we’ve also opened up the Eco Challenge initiative to home and business owners. So now you can enjoy the reduced power bills of a solar power or solar hot water system too.
Organise an energy audit of your house or premises, and if you decide to purchase, we’ll make a cash donation of $500 to the Eco Challenge of your choice (must be an existing installation). It’s a win win for everyone!
