RES is committed to supporting communities that host our renewable energy projects. As part of the development of the Bogandilla WF, a community benefit sharing strategy will be established to ensure that benefits from the Project are shared meaningfully in a manner informed by the local community. The strategy, which may incorporate a range of benefit programs, will provide positive and lasting benefits to the local community that extend beyond the life of the project.  

As part of the development of benefit sharing programs, input is sought from interested members of the community to inform and shape how our proposed project could deliver meaningful, targeted benefit.
