Lots to digest from the NSW Consumer Energy Strategy announced last week. The strategy outlined 50 actions the NSW Government intends to take over the next two years to make it easier for households and businesses to benefit from the energy transition. Highlights for me: - Ambitious but achievable targets (1 million homes/small businesses with access to rooftop solar and batteries by 2035). - New Home Energy Saver program ($239m over 4 years). Details to follow. - Review of and potential enhancements to the Energy Savings Scheme (ESS) & Peak Demand Reduction Scheme (PDRS). - Voluntary disclosure of home energy performance at the point of sale or lease, with a view to making this mandatory. - Development of new model by-laws to help strata complexes overcome the legal hurdle of adding energy-saving technologies. A formal progress update is scheduled for late 2026. Details below.

Affordable, clean energy is more than just a goal – it’s essential for our future. 🌎 The NSW Consumer Energy Strategy is charting a clear path to ensure everyone benefits from the energy transition, keeps bills low, maintains a reliable grid, and hits that all-important net zero target.

New Energy Efficiency Disclosure Framework for Australian Homes From next year it could become mandatory to disclose how energy efficient a property is before you sell or lease it. The newly released Home Energy Ratings Disclosure Framework is an indication of reforms to Australia's building industry to become more sustainable. The framework is voluntary for now but that may change when the results are reviewed in 2025. Under the framework, homes will need to undergo energy assessment and be presented with an energy performance certificate and rating. Take this opportunity to safeguard your property and improve its energy efficiency before it becomes mandatory and the demand for builders and suppliers becomes greater. There are plenty of rebates available to help you make sustainability improvements and discounts available through our Rewards for Residents program that can help too.

The NSW Government's just launched the Consumer Energy Strategy, with $290 million in funding to help homes and small businesses embrace energy-saving tech like solar panels, batteries, and heat pumps. With a $238.9 million Home Energy Saver program and new energy ratings for homes from 2025, this plan is all about cutting bills, reducing emissions, and making the energy transition easier for everyone. It's a positive step toward a more affordable, sustainable future. NSW Premier, Chris Minns, said, “Through the strategy, we are making it easier for households and small businesses to access the cost saving benefits of solar panels, batteries and heat pumps, while they reduce their emissions. NSW Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Penny Sharpe, added, “This will not only lower energy bills but also benefit our environment. The New South Wales Consumer Energy Strategy is our plan to supercharge the energy transition and put households and small businesses at the centre of this work.”  More details: https://lnkd.in/g5VHGsun Pic from Getty Images. #nswconsumerenergystrategy #newsouthwales #nsw #nswgovernment #australia #climatenews #climate #environmentalnews #sustainabilitynews #planetearth #blueplanet #oceans #climatechange #climatescience #renewables #renewableenergy #ecofriendly #conservation #climateaction #socialimpact #climateeducation #surfersforclimate
