Six upgrade categories that help reduce energy use and improve home comfort, with rebates available for eligible properties under the Victorian Energy Upgrades program.
A high-efficiency showerhead uses up to 50% less water than a standard model, without reducing shower pressure or comfort. Less hot water means less energy spent heating it, cutting both your water and energy bills simultaneously.
This is one of the quickest, easiest upgrades available under the VEU program. Our technicians can install compliant showerheads across your home in under an hour, often at little or no cost to eligible households, subject to eligibility.
A meaningful share of a home's heating and cooling can escape through gaps. We help reduce this with door seals, evaporative vent covers and exhaust fan seals, with rebates available for eligible properties under the Victorian Energy Upgrades program.
Our certified assessors identify and seal every air leak, making your home measurably more comfortable in both winter and summer and reducing the workload on your heating and cooling systems.
Reverse-cycle air conditioning is the most energy-efficient way to heat and cool your home. By switching from gas ducted heating or old resistive electric heaters to a modern reverse-cycle system, you can cut your heating costs by more than half.
The VEU program provides significant rebates for eligible homes upgrading to approved reverse-cycle systems, servicing both residential lounges and whole-home ducted solutions.
Hot water accounts for up to 25% of the average household's energy bill. A heat pump hot water system uses smart refrigerant technology to extract heat from the air, producing the same hot water as a traditional system for a fraction of the energy cost.
Under the VEU program, most Victorian homes can replace their ageing electric or gas storage systems with a premium heat pump unit at a reduced cost, subject to eligibility.
Victoria's sunshine is an asset, and a properly sized solar and battery system lets you use it fully. Generate your own clean power during the day, store the surplus in a battery, and draw from it at night to dramatically reduce or even eliminate your electricity bills.
Combined with VEU incentives and Victoria's Solar Homes rebates, quality solar installations are now within reach for virtually every Victorian household and business.
High-intensity discharge lamps and halogen floodlights in carparks, warehouses, sporting grounds, and outdoor facilities are massive energy consumers. Upgrading to modern LED equivalents typically cuts lighting energy use by 60 to 80% while improving light quality.
The VEU program's non-building lighting category covers a wide range of commercial and industrial applications, delivering fast payback periods and significant operating cost reductions for businesses and facilities.
