Game On: Teaming Up for Climate Action — DCCEEW

Australian Government grants for community sporting clubs to fund solar, battery storage, LED lighting and EV charging. Applications expected July 2026. Funding is limited.

The Opportunity

Why battery storage is a game-changer for sporting clubs

Most clubs use the bulk of their electricity in the evening — long after solar has
stopped generating. The right system turns that problem into a real opportunity.

Evening Floodlights

Training, competitions and events all run after sunset. Battery storage lets you power them from solar energy stored during the day — not expensive peak-rate grid power.

Clubroom & Kitchen

Refrigeration, kitchens, bars and HVAC run hard during events. Solar cuts your daytime bills; a battery carries the evening load when grid tariffs are highest.

Peak Demand Charges

Commercial electricity bills include demand charges tied to your peak usage window. Battery storage reduces that peak and can eliminate some of the biggest hidden costs on your bill.

Redirect Savings To Your Club

Every dollar saved on electricity is a dollar back into junior programs, facility upgrades and reducing the financial burden on your volunteer committee.

What We Install

Grant-eligible upgrades we specialise in

Everything your club needs to reduce energy costs — and everything the Game On
program is designed to fund.

Grant Eligible

Commercial Solar PV Systems

Rooftop solar designed for your facility’s load profile. We size systems to maximise both grant value and long-term savings, and manage all grid connection paperwork.

Solar Panels

Grant Eligible

Commercial Battery Storage

We install leading commercial battery systems including Sigenergy and Enphase — storing daytime solar to power your evening activities. The highest-impact upgrade for most sporting clubs.

Battery Storage

LED Sports Lighting

Replace ageing floodlights with modern LED systems — typically 50–70% less energy, lower maintenance, and better light quality for players and spectators.

LED Lighting
