RES supports the Kingaroy State High School 'Hydrogen Powered Vehicle team' to compete in USA.

RES is proud to sponsor the talented students of Kingaroy State High School (KSHS) as they prepare to represent Australia on the global stage at the H2GP World Championships in the United States this September. The H2GP (Hydrogen Powered Vehicle) team has been hard at work designing, building, and refining a hydrogen-powered vehicle to compete in a series of innovative and challenging events.

The H2GP World Championship, held as part of the RE+ North America Conference, will bring together bright young minds from across the globe, showcasing their innovative solutions to the modern energy challenges of today. This prestigious event, which hosts over 40,000 clean energy professionals from more than 125 countries, provides a unique opportunity for the students of KSHS to showcase their engineering, teamwork, and environmental skills on the world stage.

William McGrane, Senior Development Project Manager for RES’s Tarong West Wind Farm, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership: “It’s exciting to support bright young minds in endeavours such as this, where students demonstrate their talent in innovation, teamwork, and environmental stewardship. The dedication of both students and their teachers in pursuing such an ambitious project is inspiring. We’re honoured to be part of initiatives like this that create opportunities for young people to explore new horizons.”

By sponsoring the KSHS team, RES reinforces its commitment to empowering regional communities and inspiring the next generation of innovators to pursue sustainable solutions.

Kumbia State School P&C Association held their annual Brain Drain trivia night

"On Saturday 5 August 2023, Kumbia State School P&C Association held our annual Brain Drain trivia night.

The Brain Drain is our P&C’s major fundraiser each year and we rely heavily on local businesses for their support and donations in order to make the night a success.

Representatives from the Kumbia State School P&C and RES had been in contact throughout the year, after making contact during the Tarong West Wind Farm Community Consultations held at the Kumbia Hall. A positive working relationship was fostered, so much so, that we were delighted when RES offered to become 2023’s major sponsor.

On the night, 24 teams came together for an exciting night of trivia, food, raffles, novelty games, silent and live auctions and good-natured rivalry. We were pleased to have Wriece and Adam represent RES on the night and trust that they put their trivia knowledge to good use!

We are thrilled to announce that a mammoth profit was made on the night – over $10,000.00! This is a phenomenal amount to be raised from one event and we are proud of the hard work and dedication of our parent organisers and volunteers on the night. And are truly thankful to all of our sponsors of the night, especially our major sponsor RES.

We have pledged to spend the night’s profit to transform Kumbia State School’s Early Years Learning area. With new play and learning spaces to be created, new equipment, new gardens and landscaping required, the money raised from the Brain Drain will be put to good use. Some of these works have already started, and we are pleased with the progress so far.

We are excited to continue our positive relationship with RES and look forward to working with them in the future."
