At the VEU, we always look for ways to lower energy bills and increase household carbon savings for business. Recently, we announced new incentives for space heaters, coolers, and water heaters to replace gas appliances with efficient electric alternatives.
Electrifying heating is an important step towards an all-electric future. And the future is coming soon, and with-it savings of between $360 and $840 per year on your energy bills.
What’s more, these savings can increase to around $1,160 per year if you also have solar panels.
Example upgrades you will soon be able to do, include:
| Incentive | Carbon emissions |
|---|---|
Around $1,000 | You’ll stop around 16 tonnes of carbon emissions going into the atmosphere over the lifetime of the appliance. |
These systems also provide the additional benefit of cooling.
| Incentive | Carbon emissions |
|---|---|
Around $900 | You’ll stop 13 to 19 tonnes of carbon emissions over the lifetime of the appliance. |
| Incentive | Carbon emissions |
