VEU program offers discounts on energy-efficient products to help Victorians lower their bills.
The Victorian Energy Upgrades program helps Victorians upgrade their homes and businesses with energy-efficient products and services by offering discounts and rebates.
By supporting Victorians to make the switch to efficient electric alternatives, we’re helping cut their energy bills, reduce their energy use, and lower greenhouse gas emissions.
The program will save 28 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions for Victoria between 2022 and 2025. That’s equivalent to taking more than 8.5 million cars off the road for a year.
When you make your home or business more energy-efficient through the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program, accredited providers create Victorian Energy Efficiency Certificates.
Each certificate represents one tonne of greenhouse gas prevented from entering our atmosphere.
Approved businesses known as ‘accredited providers’ then sell these certificates to energy retailers. This sale funds discounts and rebates.
Energy retailers use the certificates to meet annual emissions targets set by the Victorian Government.
Conditions Apply: Discounts are based on the VEU program and standard metropolitan back-to-back installation. This includes a wall or floor bracket, 3m of piping, and 10m of cabling and conduit for a single-storey, tiled roof home. Additional costs will apply for double-storey and non-tiled roof households, as well as location-specific factors. All jobs are quoted and approved pre-installation.
This offer is provided as part of the Victorian Energy Upgrade (VEU) program. The Hot Water System offer is available to all VIC households. The offer can be used to install a Split System and/or Hot Water System under the scheme. A co-contribution is required for Gas Hot Water System replacements. Pre-order is required for some models, with delivery approximately 2 weeks after ordering. Customers must assign the rights to the Approved Partner to create energy savings certificates (VEEC/STCs) to receive the subsidised products. Additional costs may apply based on relocation distance and switchboard upgrades if necessary. These amounts will be quoted pre-installation.
