GreenPower

GreenPower helps households and businesses buy genuinely renewable electricity from more than 400 accredited providers. Morpht rebuilt the website with design partner Folk, adding a generator map, an energy offset calculator, and a showcase of businesses that run on renewables.

One platform behind every search

One content platform now powers the website, an offset calculator, and two directories. Finding an accredited provider or a nearby generator is now a quick search.

400+ accredited providers migrated and listed
A 'Locate a generator' map for finding renewable generators nearby

Website, calculator, and directories all managed from one source

About GreenPower

GreenPower is Australia's only government-managed renewable energy accreditation program [Confirm: managing agency, as the live page names the former NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment]. It gives customers confidence that their payments fund new renewable energy projects and jobs.

The solution

Morpht jump started the build of the new GreenPower site by installing Convivial, the starter site for Drupal. Convivial is a Drupal distribution created by Morpht which provides out-of-the-box a strong code base that delivers accessibility, responsiveness, and powerful tools for Site Editors.

Convivial saves on numerous development hours and provides instant functionality and flexibility that our clients love and rely on.

Improving the information architecture

Morpht worked with GreenPower to define a set of content types to bring structure and improvements to the information architecture for the website. The content types included:

Case studies
News & Events
Businesses
Providers

Locate a generator

With an ever-growing number of renewable energy generators coming online, you’d need a tool to help you find one near you. We built a solution using React.JS and Google Maps API to manage the listing and pin point generators on a map.

Super-charged searches

The Business Directory is a ‘glory board’ showcasing businesses around Australia with 50% or more of their energy consumption coming from renewable sources. Morpht super-charged this directory with a search and multiple filters to help customers easily find businesses they know and trust faster. View the business directory

And, to help businesses and consumers convert to renewable sources of energy, we created an advanced search functionality to surface over 400 providers and highlight their products.

Highly responsive energy offset calculator

We built a highly responsive calculator to help educate businesses and encourage them to offset their energy consumption at their corporate events.

By utilising ReactJS and JSON API, we created a calculator that delivers immediate responses as you enter data about an event. This was especially important for a multi-step calculation process so you can revise your information on the fly.

We also empowered GreenPower Site Editors with an editable matrix where they can modify complex calculation parameters when needed to keep the calculator up to date without relying on developer help.
