How the estimate works
Victorian Energy Upgrades discounts are not a flat rebate. The final amount depends on the upgrade and program requirements. These four factors help explain what is assessed.
System size
System capacity and product efficiency affect the discount. The right size should suit your home and heating needs.
Certificate prices
VEU discounts are linked to tradable energy-efficiency certificates, so their value can change with the market.
Decommissioning
Where required, the old system must be safely decommissioned and supporting evidence collected for the claim.
An accredited provider must confirm the eligible discount and arrangements before work starts. Melba Energy can help you understand the next steps.
Method, sources and review
The current tool shows a standard indicative estimate of $8,000. It does not yet adjust for your selections, system size or live certificate prices. Submit your details for an individual assessment.
