Dales Creek

What Dales Creek needs from a system.

Dales Creek is a small semi rural locality near Ballan, where houses sit among tall bush close to the Wombat State Forest. About four hundred people live here on bush blocks and small holdings.

A bush block here lives with shade, fire and falling limbs. The honest approach is to measure how much sun reaches each roof, keep the equipment clear of vegetation and think about whether a battery with backup suits a place where storms can take trees across the lines.
