What is the Rainbow Power Company?
check out their website

by John Tracey

Nimbin, whatever it is in reality, is an icon of the old alternative movement in Australia. That icon has a series of sub-icons such as the annual mardi-grass and the street murals. However the most powerful (excuse the pun) Nimbinic icon is the Rainbow Power Company. I first heard of this mythical beast decades ago. Their experiments with car alternators and bicycle dynamos inspired many attempts to copy them. The copyists I knew were always given help and advice when they asked. R.P.C. has developed into a major retailer of sustainability products, not just but especially electricity generation.
The R.P.C. are not the only the only business to develop alternative technology. The major fossil-fuel companies have invested heavily in solar power and offer a wide range of products. However their motivation has been to supplement and evolve their own dominance of the energy market. R.P.C. have encouraged energy self sufficiency and self management - an altogether different agenda.

The energy systems for our future remote housing developments (including a totally independant kit home) will be supplied by the R.P.C. We will also market and sell their products through the Pitta Pitta Art Gallery and Education Centre.
