Impact Report 2004-2025
“As a trusted local government delivery partner, SECCCA has led innovative projects that protect communities, strengthen our region, and build resilience where it matters most. As a region our strength lies in collaboration: together we go further, faster, and with greater impact.”
SECCCA is delighted to share with you SECCCA’s inaugural Impact Report 2004-2025, celebrating over two decades of collaborative climate leadership across South East Melbourne. This is an exciting milestone for SECCCA, demonstrating the achievements and outcomes of this pioneering alliance.
SECCCA was established in 2004, delivering joint initiatives that leverage economies of scale to achieve outcomes beyond the reach of an individual council. The focus of our activity has been future-proofing assets and communities, delivering long-term financial savings, and reducing carbon emissions. We also conduct targeted advocacy, contributing to state and federal policy development for the benefit of our region.
SECCCA has a track-record of outstanding service delivery. For every dollar invested by a council in SECCCA, we have returned $24 in value. Since 2004, we have delivered:
$22 million cost savings across councils, households, businesses and community organisations
22.9 million tonnes of potential carbon emissions savings
$24 per tonne emissions reduction, compared to the $128 industry benchmark
46 completed projects, delivering whole-of-council solutions
70+ joint submissions, in partnership with other organisations over the last 5 years
