Water and Energy Rebates

Rebates make it easier to reduce your impact on the environment by reducing the upfront expense of water and energy saving measures.

A variety of State and Federal Government rebates are available to assist residents, businesses, schools and community organisations. These include rebates for:

• Water conservation measures such as installing rainwater tanks, grey water systems and water-saving appliances.
• Energy saving measures such as installing solar hot water or energy efficient gas hot water systems, insulation and solar PV panels.

Under the Energy Efficient Homes Package the Australian Government is offering:

• Ceiling insulation worth up to $1,600 to all Australian home owner-occupiers with limited or no ceiling insulation or a $1,600 rebate on the costs of installing a solar hot water system.
• Help for renters, with a rebate for landlords and tenants on the costs of insulating rental properties.
