Uniting Care Wesley Bowden (UCWB) deliver services for vulnerable children and their families, older people, individuals who live with disability and carers to support individual and community wellbeing.

As a non-profit organisation, UCWB has been delivering innovative, tailored services to support individual and community wellbeing for over 160 years.

By combining all 9 meters on-site to create one gate-meter, with sub-meters, the bill savings opportunity is magnified and the cost to achieve it is optimised.

A 100kW SunPower solar PV was also installed as an alternative source of energy during daylight hours. The embedded network helps take full advantage of the solar power.
