Community partnerships

CS Energy views sponsorships as partnerships. We believe in making positive, lasting contributions to the communities that host our operations.

Some of our most recent sponsorships include:
 

Moving Opera!

Schools in all four of our host communities have participated in Moving Opera! since CS Energy began sponsoring the program in 2003. Opera Queensland artists coach students in opera and musical theatre skills in an intensive five-day program. The week culminates in a community performance in front of family and friends to raise funds for their schools’ music departments.

Biloela Rockfest

Callide Power Station supports the annual Biloela Rockfest music festival, which showcases local music talent. As an added bonus in 2009, CS Energy sponsored a professional development workshop for local bands with Screamfeeder bass player Kellie Lloyd. The workshop was run free of charge to participants through Q Music and resulted in a CD of original music from the bands.
