Green Peak Energy’s partnership with Oakleigh Grammar
Oakleigh Grammar prides itself on being an energy-efficient school, continually seeking opportunities to reduce its carbon footprint.
In mid-2018, Green Peak Energy began collaborating with Oakleigh Grammar. With the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), the school incurred zero capital outlay and started saving money from day one.

Hear what Oakleigh Grammar had to say about this project
“As an energy efficient school, we are always looking at opportunities to reduce our carbon footprint. The reason we decided to go with a Green Peak PPA (…) was the fact that there were no up-front costs. In fact, we don’t actually own it, but we’re getting the benefits of the savings in electricity costs.”
