Estimated output wasn&#8217;t specified, but in those locations a system of that size can be expected to generate around 34,700 kilowatt-hours of clean electricity annually.<\/p>\n<p>The installations are part of\u00a0 Bendigo Bank meeting its commitment to 100 percent renewable electricity by 2025, and to reduce absolute corporate emissions by 50 percent by 2030.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Putting our customers first is in our DNA here at Bendigo and Adelaide Bank &#8211; not only with their banking needs &#8211; but also in contributing to a more sustainable future for future generations,&#8221; said Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Managing Director, Marnie Baker.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Management and staff at both locations seem pretty pumped about generating power from their respective rooftops.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Not only will they help contribute to the Bank\u2019s long-term commitment to sustainability and the environment, but these new Tindo panels will also help to promote the many advantages of solar panels and renewable energy across the entire Wagga community for at least the next 25 years,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bendigoadelaide.com.au\/media-centre\/wagga-wagga-now-powered-by-the-sun\/\">said<\/a> Wagga Branch Manager Chris Hawe.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In a bizarre coincidence, Regional Manager Kendall Beattie <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bendigoadelaide.com.au\/media-centre\/cobram-now-powered-by-the-sun\/\">said pretty much the same thing<\/a> about the Cobram installation &#8211; just using the word &#8220;Cobram&#8221; instead of &#8220;Wagga&#8221;. Great minds and all that.<\/p>\n<h2>Bendigo Bank And Solar Power<\/h2>\n<p>Bendigo Bank has a penchant for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/panels\/tindo-solar-review.html\">Tindo Solar panels<\/a>, which are also pretty popular with home solar buyers who are prepared to stump up a bit more cash for Australian-made modules <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/panels\/comparison\/compare-solar-panels\/\">compared to<\/a> most imported brands.<\/p>\n<p>In December last year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/bendigo-bank-solar-mb2334\/\">2 x 100kW Tindo-based PV systems<\/a> started cranking clean electricity from the rooftop of Bendigo Bank\u2019s national headquarters in Victoria.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the end of the bank&#8217;s solar rollout. Ms. Baker noted 30 Bendigo Bank branches across Australia were benefiting from solar energy by the end of last financial year, there are 45 systems in place now and more installations are scheduled before the end of this year. Chances seem pretty good some or all of those installs will sport Tindo gear.<\/p>\n<p>Tindo and Bendigo&#8217;s relationship is a two-way street. The bank provided finance for Tindo Solar\u2019s new\u00a0 factory in Adelaide, which was officially opened last month.\u00a0 The first solar panel for utility-scale applications ever produced in Australia is being manufactured at the new Mawson Lakes facility &#8211; the 550 watt Karra; along with the 405 watt Karra for the home and commercial rooftop solar power market.\u00a0 Both panels are based on larger and more efficient M10 cells.<\/p>\n<p>On a related note, the company recently announced its modules had successfully completed cyclone testing and are certified for use in C (significant risk of cyclone impact) and D (most prone to severe cyclone impact) wind classification regions.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;<span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql lr9zc1uh a8c37x1j fe6kdd0r mau55g9w c8b282yb keod5gw0 nxhoafnm aigsh9s9 d3f4x2em iv3no6db jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id hzawbc8m\" dir=\"auto\">This specialist testing in the N.T shows that we are committed to quality here at Tindo, and you can trust that we offer an exceptional solar panel,&#8221;
