Take your event that little bit further with AGL.
What are Green Powered Events?
Green Events are those which are powered by 100% accredited green energy. Hosting a ‘green’ event is a great way to both minimise carbon impact as well as actively promote the event organiser’s focus on addressing the issue of climate change.
Only 100% accredited GreenPowerTM renewable energy is used for the event consumption, and the event organiser may be eligible to use the GreenPowerTM logo in association with the event.
