The Whole of Home Resilience project

In July, Council partnered with the Castlemaine Institute to deliver 150 free energy efficiency and resilience home assessments to 150 households in the shire.

The assessments will help participants understand the risks around natural hazards like bushfire, flood, storm and extreme heat, and prepare their homes accordingly.

The project will look at a range of house types, old and new, with a variety of construction materials and techniques, for example weatherboard, brick, brick veneer.

Data from the assessments will help us identify how to best support our community to prepare their homes against natural hazards.
