The LGA is home to more than 327,000 people, covers around 957 square kilometres and incorporates <a href=\"https:\/\/www.logan.qld.gov.au\/about-logan\/suburbs\">70 suburbs<\/a> including Marsden, Kingston, Slacks Creek, Woodridge, Springwood and Logan Central.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a lot of people to look after and services to provide &#8211; and this activity also means significant electricity consumption. Logan City Council has already installed 29 solar power systems on its buildings to help rein in energy costs and emissions. Most of these are small systems, but there&#8217;s a few large-ish installations among them:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Browns Plains Recycling Centre (30 kW)<\/li>\n<li>Animal Management Centre at Slacks Creek (30 kW)<\/li>\n<li>Round Mountain Reservoir (87 kW)<\/li>\n<li>Tudor Park Community Recreation Centre system (22kW)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Round Mountain Reservoir installation, an off-grid system, also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.logan.qld.gov.au\/about-council\/news-and-publications\/media-releases\/media-releases\/cutting-edge-technology-provides-off-grid-power-solutions-in-australia-first\">features a Tesla Powerpack<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The new sites to get solar panels this financial year will be:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Logan West Community Centre<\/li>\n<li>Mt Warren Sports Centre<\/li>\n<li>Logan North Aquatic Centre<\/li>\n<li>Logan West Library<\/li>\n<li>Marsden Library<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The capacity of the systems wasn&#8217;t noted, but Council says the new installations will save an estimated $55,200 in electricity costs annually as well contributing a substantial carbon emissions reduction.

Commercial solar systems (10kW+) also have a strong showing in the Logan City Council area, estimated at 1,080.
