Reduce your power bills and carbon pollution

If your business spends around $20,000 a year on electricity or employs up to about 10 people, you may be eligible for the Energy Efficiency for Small Business Program.

The Program provides personalised energy assessments, tailored Energy Action Plans and a subsidy of up to $5,000, to pay for 50 per cent of the cost of installing energy efficiency improvements, that will help your business save money, cut power bills and reduce carbon pollution.

If you are a larger business, you may qualify for the Sustainability Advantage Program.

There are many power saving actions your business can do to make a difference. Find out how to lower the cost of your power bills over a year, and reduce carbon pollution by:

• increasing the temperature setpoint of your air conditioning in summer
• switching to energy efficient lighting
• replacing your old air conditioner
• fixing leaks in compressed air systems.
