Using the information provided by the SGA program, as well as studies commissioned independently by Darling Island Apartments, a program of works has been undertaken and continues to today, which contributes to the national environmental program. A by-product of the many initiatives has been a significant reduction in the running costs for the complex. A Sustainability Sub-Committee continues to monitor progress and identify opportunities for additional initiatives.
The increasing state and national focus on converting to electric vehicles will continue to stimulate take-up. Darling Island Apartments has installed the necessary infrastructure so that any occupier with an electric vehicle will be able to charge their vehicle in their allocated parking space(s). A sophisticated EV Charging management system enables individual owners to optimise their vehicles charging cycle to minimise cost.
