Insulation rebate
Insulation rebates — what may be available
Ceiling insulation may be subsidised under state energy efficiency schemes such as VEU, helping cut heating and cooling costs. Availability varies by state — here’s what may apply.
Ceiling insulation may be subsidised under state efficiency schemes — most notably the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program — helping reduce heating and cooling costs.
What support may be available for insulation
Adding or topping up ceiling insulation is one of the most cost-effective ways to cut heating and cooling bills. In Victoria, the VEU program may provide a discount on eligible ceiling insulation through an accredited provider. Availability in other states is more limited and may change.
State efficiency schemes — Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) in VIC, the Energy Savings Scheme (ESS) in NSW and the Retailer Energy Productivity Scheme (REPS) in SA — deliver these as an upfront discount through accredited providers. Availability and amounts vary by state, provider and product, and change over time. Other states rely mainly on federal incentives. Verify current details before you commit.
Eligibility usually depends on your existing insulation level, an approved product, an accredited installer and the scheme’s current rules. Confirm details before installing.
