Government Rebates For Heat Pumps – Up to $3000
Solar Victoria Pump Rebate
The Solar Victoria Heat Pump Rebate is a government initiative in Victoria aimed at encouraging the use of energy-efficient heat pump hot water systems. This program supports sustainability efforts by helping households reduce energy use and lower greenhouse gas emissions. Eligible households can receive an upfront rebate of up to $1,000 when they install a qualifying heat pump hot water system.
STC Rebates
Depending on your system’s energy production, the government STC program gives refunds. The more energy-efficient your heat pump, the more rebates you can claim.
The Small-scale Technology Certificate (STC) Incentive offers a great benefit for those looking to install heat pump hot water systems. By installing an eligible system, individuals can earn STCs, which reflect the environmental advantages of using renewable energy and help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This incentive is typically applied as a discount at the point of sale and is available whether you’re installing a new system or replacing an inefficient one.
Estimated value: Approximately $950 to $1,050.
VEU/VEEC Rebates
The Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program provides a valuable incentive for installing heat pump hot water systems in Victoria. By switching to energy-efficient heat pump technology, households can reduce their energy consumption and carbon footprint. Through the VEU program, these environmental benefits are rewarded with the creation of Victorian Energy Efficiency Certificates (VEECs), based on the energy savings achieved by replacing traditional electric hot water systems with heat pump alternatives.
This incentive not only encourages the adoption of advanced technology but also enables Victorians to embrace sustainable solutions, enjoy lower energy bills, and support the state’s energy efficiency goals.
Similar to the STC, the VEEC Rebate is offered as an upfront discount to customers.

How Do Heat Pump Hot Water Systems Work?
Heat pumps operate on a simple principle similar to a refrigerator but in reverse.
Heat Extraction
By absorbing thermal energy, the system uses a refrigerant to draw heat from the surrounding air.
Compression
e refrigerant is compressed, its temperature rises.
Heat Transfer
The water in the tank receives energy from the heated refrigerant.
Cycle Repeats
The process continuously cycles to ensure a consistent supply of hot water.
What Exactly is a Heat Pump Hot Water System?
A heat pump hot water system provides heat from the surrounding air in order to heat the water in your storage tank. As opposed to conventional electric or gas systems, heat pumps work differently. They use the thermal energy of the surrounding air. These hot water units maintain their high efficiency and provide significant energy bill reductions even in colder areas.
We Offer Fast & Affordable Solutions
Energy-Efficiency
Hot water heat pumps transfer heat instead of producing it, using very little power. This results in significant monthly electricity bill savings of up to 70% on energy.
Environmentally Friendly
Heat pumps have very less carbon footprint when compared to gas and electric heaters. They utilise renewable energy from the air, contributing to reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
Long-Term Cost Savings
A heat pump system may cost more upfront than other solutions, but there are significant long-term benefits. Government subsidies and decreased energy use will eventually balance the initial expense.
