3. Housing ACT data does not currently include a component that allows for the reporting on the number of properties with solar panels across the portfolio.
In response to COVID-19, the ACT Government announced close to $9.75 million in funding for a program of infrastructure projects that were ready to start immediately; projects that will support local jobs, businesses and the Canberra community through the pandemic.
As part of the program, $365,000 has been allocated to the installation of solar panels on ten residential disability group homes and two larger complexes within public and community housing properties.
