Community Impact
Energy created by the People, for the People
Creating a community to build a brighter future is at the heart of everything we do. It’s what gets us out of bed each morning. That’s why we’ve created our award-winning, community energy business model – which ensures the benefits flow down to our amazing community.
Community Projects
Plico was born from the community, so it makes sense that we want to give back. We ensure that the benefits from our growing social enterprise flow down to local communities across the state. That’s why we invest our membership fees directly into our Plico Community Fund.
The Community Fund assists community groups, charities, schools, sports clubs and other like-minded organisations with projects that support sustainability, community resilience and a healthy planet. The Fund is managed by the not-for-profit association that all Plico Members are part of, the Plico Community Council (Trading as DCEP Inc). Find out what community projects were supported in 2023-2024 in the Annual Report.

We’re putting the power back into the hands of the community. Creating your own energy and reshaping Australia’s future is empowering.

What’s more, you can sell the energy you don’t need back to the grid – and you’ll be helping to improve and reshape Australia’s energy future.
