What are VEU rebates
The Victorian Government’s Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program is an initiative aimed at helping households and businesses across Victoria reduce their energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. By providing financial incentives for the installation of energy-efficient products and services, the program makes it more affordable for participants to improve energy efficiency, lower energy bills, and contribute to a more sustainable future.
Federal Government Small-scale Technology Certificate (STC)
The federal STC scheme lowers the cost of installing eligible solar hot water systems by offering tradable certificates as an upfront discount
Victorian Energy Efficiency Certificate (VEEC)
VEECs are created when you install approved energy-efficient hot water systems, providing instant savings through the VEU program.
