Induction cooktop discounts

Discounts on energy-efficient induction cooktops will be available through the VEU program later in 2024.

Investing in an energy-efficient induction cooktop is a great way to reduce your energy use.

There are many benefits to choosing an efficient induction cooktop over gas alternatives.

Induction cooktops:

• are around 3 times more efficient than gas cooktops, driving down bills and emissions
• are far healthier. They avoid emissions of harmful contaminants that cause respiratory illnesses and symptoms
• are favoured by a growing range of professional chefs. Induction cooktops heat with more precision, cook quicker, and provide greater temperature control
• promote cooler kitchens. The cooktop surface only heats when a pan is present. This contains the heat in the pan and not in the surrounding environment
• are easier to clean, requiring a simple wipe-down.

Induction cooktops are often the last gas appliance in a house. Removing them allows the home to be gas free.

This means the annual gas network connection charges will be permanently avoided.

This saves around $350 to $400 yearly on fixed network charges, in addition to lower energy cost for cooking.

Supporting Victorian households to transition to induction cooktops also lowers the risk of Victorian children developing respiratory conditions such as asthma.
