Taking the power back with Cooperative Power

Cooperative Power (CoPower) is flipping the script on the traditional energy model. As a not-for-profit energy co-operative, formed in 2021, it’s helping Australians take control of how energy is generated, priced and used – for the benefit of people and the planet. 

Unlike the big energy corporations, CoPower puts community first. Members buy electricity at wholesale rates with no profit-driven markups, lock-ins or exit fees. The revenue it does generate goes straight back into climate-positive initiatives like community solar farms, home energy upgrades and appliance replacement programs – helping households become more efficient while building local, sustainable infrastructure. 

Members aren’t just customers – they’re co-owners. That means they have a say in decisions and help shape a future where clean energy is affordable and accessible. CoPower also invests in local jobs and supports workers who are part of building the transition to a fairer, greener economy. 

With a firm belief in the science of climate change and the urgency to act, CoPower is more than just another power provider – it’s a movement. A movement to take energy back from the big three and give it to the people who use it, need it and care about where it comes from.
