About Us

TRY was started in 2014 and since then a lot of sunshine has hit a lot of solar panels. Find out a little bit more about us here.

Totally Renewable Yackandandah gathers in the narrow wooded valley alongside the Yackandandah and Commissioners Creeks. We meet among the grassy dry forests and woodlands that clothe the northern Victorian flanks of the Great Dividing Range.

Publications

TRY has conducted community engagement and analysed the outcomes of our major projects. We also make submissions to various government enquiries. We’ve included a few of our more notable reports and submissions here, along with recent brochures and speeches.

Newsletters

If you join our mailing list, you will receive a quarterly newsletter which summarises recent events and progress on our main projects. For those that don’t wish to subscribe you can check out the PDF versions of the newsletter below. We also regularly publish updates in Yackandandah’s own community newspaper, Yackity Yak.

Press

From the beginning TRY’s ethos has been to show what can be done, that a clean energy transition is entirely achievable. We have worked hard to speak to communities, organisations and media, whenever the chance arises, about the steps we’re taking and the milestone’s achieved.
