Energy efficiency: Saving energy and money

We offer a range of programs, funding, resources and support to help you electrify to reduce your energy bills and carbon emissions.

Energy$mart

If you are a local Darebin business or organisation that wants to jump on board the all-electric transition, we can help you through our Energy$mart program.

Energy$mart can help you upgrade to an efficient split system for heating and cooling or heat pump for hot water. Our program connects you to reputable installers and products, offers support and a rebate of up to $1,000 on top of other government subsidies.

Our Light$mart program can assist with a free or subsidised LED lighting upgrade.
