VIC Hot Water Upgrades: Take advantage of energy-efficient solutions supported by government rebates to save on your energy bills while contributing to a greener future.
Hot Water Systems for Homes – Now Available with Government Rebates (Eligible Under Victorian Energy Upgrades)
Both Victorian homes and businesses can significantly lower their energy costs and contribute to a greener environment by replacing outdated hot water systems with new, air-sourced heat pump technology.
Upgrade to an energy-efficient hot water system for your home at a reduced cost through the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program! Government rebates, along with the Solar Victoria grant, make this transition even more affordable, allowing you to save significantly on your energy bills.
Government Rebates Make the Switch Affordable
Victoria offers two key rebate programs to make the switch to a high-efficiency heat pump more affordable:
Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) Scheme
Provides discounts for eligible homes and businesses when replacing inefficient water heaters with approved heat-pump or solar-boosted systems.
Solar Victoria Grants
Offers additional support for owner-occupiers installing high-efficiency units, helping reduce upfront costs and encourage sustainable upgrades.
Hot Water Upgrades for Victorian Homeowners
VEU & Solar Victoria rebates
Heating water is costly, but PowerSmart makes the solution affordable. We manage your eligibility for both the VEU and Solar Victoria rebates, providing significant upfront discounts on energy-efficient heat pumps. This investment can reduce your hot-water energy use by up to 70% and save you around $330 a year.
Solar Victoria Hot Water Rebate
Eligible owner-occupiers may receive up to $1,000 towards an approved heat-pump hot-water system. To qualify, you must:
- Be the owner-occupier of an existing Victorian home.
- Have a combined household income below $210,000 and a home valued under $3 million.
- Replace a hot-water system at least three years old.
- Not have previously claimed a Solar Victoria hot-water rebate at this address.
What Determines How Much Rebate You'll Receive?
- Heat pump kW rating — affects certificate creation.
- Efficiency (COP/performance) — higher efficiency can increase rebate size.
- VEU certificate price — rebate fluctuates with market value.
- Installation & admin costs — site conditions and compliance steps matter.
- Potential energy savings — higher savings strengthen payback.
