Cowell Electric values the ability to be able to improve the wellbeing and experiences of the community in which we work as part of its roles as a regional corporate citizen. We do this through actively purchasing goods and services from the regions within which we are currently working as well as Corporate Sponsorships.
In October 2019 Cowell Electrical installed customer designed lighting for the Indulkana Community Basketball Court.
The usability of these lights were improved by the installation of solar timer switch so that the lights switch on at night fall and remain on for 4 hours allowing all members of the community easy access to these facilities at any time of the day.
