The Albanese Government is taking action to drive down household and business energy costs and make homes and businesses cheaper to run.

Making homes and businesses more energy efficient is one important way we can ease the cost of living and take pressure off Australians.

As part of our plan to ease the cost of living without adding to inflation, the 2023-24 Budget delivers more than $1.6 billion for energy saving upgrades for homes, businesses and socia housing.

This investment will help people with older homes and appliances that don’t meet modern energy standards to upgrade and keep money from leaking out the door.
