Energy Efficient Homes Package
The Australian Government's $4 billion Energy Efficient Homes package will install ceiling insulation in up to 2.9 million Australian homes and help up to 420,000 households install a solar hot water system.
These practical steps will create jobs, help millions of households reduce their energy use, cut their power bills by between $200 and $700 a year, and increase the comfort and value of their homes.
The non-means tested package includes:
- ceiling insulation worth up to $1,600 for owner-occupiers; OR
- a $1,600 rebate on the cost of installing a solar hot water system.
- There is also help for renters, with up to $1,000 available to help landlords or tenants install ceiling insulation in rental properties.
Both insulation offers target homes with very little or no existing ceiling insulation.
Guidelines for the three elements of the package are available for download or by calling the free hotline on 1800 808 571.
