The Shoalhaven One showcase facility will be officially opened by the New South Wales Minister for Resources and Energy Chris Hartcher.

Other invited guests include Mayor of Shoalhaven Council, Councillor Paul Green; Federal Member for Gilmore, Joanna Gash; Federal Member for Eden-Monaro, Mike Kelly; State Member for the South Coast, Shelley Hancock; State Member for Kiama, Gareth Ward; Vice Chancellor of the University of Wollongong, Prof. Paul Wellings; Director of the Shoalhaven Marine and Freshwater Centre at the University of Wollongong, Pia Winberg; and Shoalhaven Campus Head of Campus Associate Prof. Robbie Collins.
