Community owned. Community minded.
Creating a Brighter Future, Together
When it comes to rewriting Australia’s energy future, there’s power in numbers. When you join Plico you become part of a community of savvy homeowners who are saying ‘yes’ to clean energy and greater energy independence. And it all began with the Dunsborough Community Energy Project in WA's sunny South West.
Who is the Plico Community Council?
Our story starts back in 2017 when a group of innovators, keen to see more action on climate change, first introduced their unique clean energy model to the coastal town of Dunsborough. Their mission was to make clean energy affordable and accessible for all Aussies.
The movement quickly expanded and so, Plico was born.
The Plico Community Council (PCC), formerly DCEP, is the not-for-profit association that all Plico members are part of. Our dedicated PCC Committee represents our community and drives community impact and member support initiatives.
