Vibrant Hindu community embraces solar

Sustainability Victoria

Collective action comes naturally to the strong and vibrant community that makes up the the Kundrathu Kumaran Temple in Deanside, which is attended by many of Victoria’s Indian, Sri Lankan, Fijian, Mauritian, Malaysian, Singaporean and South African Hindu communities.

Inspired by a desire to create a more sustainable future, the temple is one of more than 100 community centres Sustainability Victoria helped upgrade to renewable energy through our Community Climate Change and Energy Action program, delivered on behalf of the Victorian Government.

Temple Project Manager Kasi Nathan explained that the Hindu religion is based on protecting nature.
