Sutherland Courthouse has undergone a $1.7 million transformation in sustainability and building upgrades including the installation of rooftop solar panels and an energy storage system.
The installation of the 100 kilowatt rooftop solar system will help reduce the building’s energy consumption by up to 40% which means less impact on the environment.
The new energy storage system will store solar energy from the panels, which can be used when the sun isn’t shining, further reducing the building’s carbon footprint.
The NSW Government’s investment in solar and battery storage will help generate significant savings to the local community as well as the environment with savings of up to $170,000 in running costs over the next five years and it will contribute towards reducing close to 114 tonnes of emissions per year. This is equivalent to planting 1,687 trees.
The completed works at Sutherland Courthouse also include major refurbishments to the entire roof of the courthouse spanning an area equivalent to 13 tennis courts, re-painting the courthouse’s 80s exterior and remediation of the sandstone façade.
More than 13,700 local court matters were finalised at Sutherland Local Court in 2021, making it the third busiest courthouse in the Sydney metropolitan area, following the Downing Centre and Parramatta Court.
Congratulations to @sussanleymp on her election to lead the Federal Liberals, the first woman to do so.
Under Sussan’s leadership, the Liberal Party can offer a compelling vision grounded in our core values of individual freedom, personal responsibility, reward for effort, and opportunity and a fair go for all.
The NSW Liberals look forward to working with Sussan and her Deputy @ted.obrien.mp to renew the Liberal Party and ultimately deliver better outcomes for all Australians. ... See MoreSee Less

The Labor govt. and its jackals will tear her to shreds. There is no point in electing a woman leader just because of her sex, unless she has the character and ability of a Margaret Thatcher or a Giorgia Meloni.
The other bloke was blown away by even mention of the potential deputy.
Only way Australian's can have a fair go is if Net Zero is dropped
Due to the closeness of the vote, I think she may have tumultuous time , trying to unite this rabble.
Just fold the party and start again
Unfortunately they are both
Liberals are supposed to have a conscience and support religion, little of this have we seen!!!
Congratulations Susan, go girl, go!
I am counting on you to get things going for Libs. .
VOTE NO Australia need to stop KILLING THEIR INNOCENT CHILDREN! www.facebook.com/DrJoannaHowe/videos/2071684856641316
What’s she going to do about excessive taxation and regulations
Congratulations Sussan. I would have been happy with either you or Angus. I see from the abhorrent comments, the Labor Lying Party supporters; obviously are very salty. Hilarious!
To the new party
Need to know where she stands on what is man & woman & climate folly
Wrong choice…..
Don't support the abortion bill or it will be the last time vote liberal !!!!

It was great to visit Kamay Botany Bay National Park recently and see the new visitor centre taking shape.
The visitor centre is expected to be completed next year. Together with the new amenities blocks at Commemoration Flat and Cricket Pitch, the new whale watching platform, walking track upgrades, car park and other improvements, the park will be an even better place to visit. ... See MoreSee Less

The election of Chicago-born Cardinal Robert Prevost as the 267th pope is a moment of great significance for Catholics around the world.
May Pope Leo XIV’s leadership bring strength and renewal to the faithful and hope, goodwill and justice to Catholics and non-Catholics alike.
