About VEU Program  

The Victorian Government is supporting this transition to electrification by providing financial incentives for businesses and households to upgrade their equipment and appliances, reduce carbon emissions, and ultimately lower energy bills.  This is a crucial moment for trades to get involved, stay ahead of the curve, and tap into the growing demand for electrification. The Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) Program has recently been extended to 2045. This extension offers a unique opportunity for trades to grow their business by providing discounts for electrification services supported by this program.   

As Australia’s largest energy upgrades initiative, VEU is designed to help Victoria achieve its ambitious emissions reduction targets while helping Victorian homes and businesses electrify and cut their energy costs. With electrification and energy efficiency at the core of this effort, new legislation and regulations are driving an increase in demand for energy-saving products and services.
