Solar and batteries in Campbells Creek.
The southern edge of Castlemaine, a creek side suburb with a long gold rush and Chinese camp history.
Campbells Creek
What Campbells Creek needs from a system.
Campbells Creek lies on the southern outskirts of Castlemaine and is named for the creek, which feeds the Loddon River. In the late 1850s a Chinese camp of more than 3,000 people stood here, and the Five Flags Hotel has been open since 1855. It now has a trail, a park, a general store and a cafe.
As a suburb it is a mix of period weatherboards and newer homes, some of them close to the creek. Where the block is low, equipment goes above flood height, and with plenty of residential roofs the typical job is a straightforward rooftop system with attention to the shade of mature trees.
