Support to make energy-smart choices affordable

A Home Energy Rating assessment can unlock financial support to help you make energy efficiency upgrades and improvements to your home. Assessments can be used to access rebates and other incentives offered by government programs.  

Some lenders offer discounted finance with lower rates for building or purchasing a β€˜green’ home or making upgrades to improve the energy efficiency of an existing home. By providing a trusted certificate, a Home Energy Rating gives households the evidence needed to access these opportunities.  

Whether you’re building a new home, renovating or upgrading an existing home that you live in or rent, an assessment can help connect you with green funding and finance options designed to reduce costs and support energy-smart living.
