Go Electric for a healthy, safe future

Be part of a clean energy future by moving your home to become all-electric.

Heating, cooling, hot water, cooking, bicycles & cars – going electric is healthier for your family and will make your home more comfortable and cheaper to run.

And it doesn’t have to be all at once. Take time to prepare so that when appliances like your hot water system need replacing, you’re ready to make the switch.

You can also install solar and battery or draughtproof your home to save money and support the transition to efficient, cleaner electricity.

If you are ready to start now or need to take it in stages - make a plan today to go all-electric.

And when you're ready to upgrade Yarra has partnered with Solar Savers, where you can receive up to three no-obligation quotes from Council-approved suppliers. Register through Yarra's Solar Savers page.
