Community

Our commitment to people and sustainability

FRV is passionate about this project and we recognise the importance of ensuring the project is a success for the local community.

FRV considers it is important that the concerns of the local and broader community are considered and addressed appropriately.

There are a number of benefits of the project for the community. It will represent a positive diversification of the regional economy, it will create employment opportunities, and it will have a significantly lower environmental impact relative to coal, diesel and gas-fired power plants.

If you are a member of the community or are just interested in the project, we encourage you to share any thoughts, apprehensions or suggestions you may have whether they are positive or negative about the project and they will be considered and addressed appropriately.
