Federation of Catholic Colleges

Leading the way

The Federation of Catholic Colleges is located in Melbourne’s west and provides leading faith-based education for students of the western suburbs. In late 2016, CRC St Albans was the leader among the colleges to take up the first of five large-scale solar PV systems, followed by CRC Melton, Sydenham, North Keilor and Caroline Springs. The collective now enjoys consistent year-on-year clean energy, self-reliance and cost control. The system monitoring platform provided by Enervest allows students to view live output figures and engage with their college on another level outside of traditional education.
