About VEU Program 

The Victorian Energy Upgrades program helps Victorians upgrade their homes and businesses with energy-efficient products and services by offering discounts and rebates.

By supporting Victorians to make the switch to efficient electric alternatives, we’re helping cut their energy bills, reduce their energy use, and lower greenhouse gas emissions.

The program will save 37 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions for Victoria between 2022 and 2027. That’s equivalent to taking more than 11 million cars off the road for a year.
