Yarra is helping more people keep their homes cool in summer and warm in winter.
We are offering eligible resident’s subsidies of up to $3,000 for home improvements to install solar, electrify or improve thermal comfort through our Yarra Home Energy Upgrades pilot program.

- Make your home or apartment more comfortable and energy efficient
- Bring down your energy bills
- Reduce your climate emissions
How can I use the subsidy?
Funding can be used to install any of the following:
- solar
- reverse cycle heating and cooling

- efficient electric hot water systems
- or draughtproofing to seal gaps and cracks and more!
