Climate Green Melbourne, a fully accredited provider under the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) Program, is clarifying an important point for Victorian residents: VEU rebates are not exclusive to homeowners.
Tenants are equally eligible to receive these energy-efficiency upgrades as long as they obtain permission from their landlord.

With energy prices continuing to rise, many renters are searching for ways to lower their electricity bills and improve indoor comfort. Climate Green is working to ensure renters understand that they, too, can benefit from government-backed incentives designed to make Victorian homes more efficient and sustainable.

“There’s a misconception that only homeowners can access VEU rebates. That’s simply not true,” the Climate Green Melbourne Team explained. “Once a landlord approves the upgrade, tenants can enjoy the same energy savings and comfort improvements as any homeowner.”

Energy Upgrades Available to Renters

After securing landlord approval, tenants may qualify for rebates on a variety of VEU-approved upgrades, such as:

Reverse-cycle air conditioning systems

Heat pump hot water units

LED lighting upgrades

Draught sealing and weatherproofing products

Approved energy-efficient appliances

Other VEU-qualified technologies

These upgrades provide long-term reductions in energy consumption while enhancing comfort within the property.

Why These Upgrades Benefit Both Renters and Landlords

Tenants experience lower energy bills

Homes become more comfortable and efficient

Landlords see increased property value and appeal

Reduced carbon emissions benefit the environment

Government incentives minimise the financial burden for everyone

Climate Green Melbourne manages every stage of the process — from confirming eligibility to performing installations and handling all VEU documentation — ensuring a smooth and compliant experience.

Encouraging Constructive Tenant–Landlord Communication

Climate Green recommends that tenants initiate discussions with their landlords about possible upgrades. Because the VEU scheme has broad eligibility and covers multiple improvement types, these upgrades can be advantageous for both parties.
