South Hobart Bulk-Buy

South Hobart

Australia’s first electric vehicle bulk-buy

Our inaugural bulk-buy was a partnership with the South Hobart Sustainable Community (SHSC). SHSC is a not-for-profit that has previously delivered solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and solar hot water bulk-buys to the South Hobart Community, as well as a range of other community ventures. The Bulk-Buy ran from November to December 2019. Picture are members of the SHSC.
