Climate Green Melbourne Clarifies Eligibility: Tenants Can Also Access VEU Energy Upgrades

MELBOURNE, Australia - Nov. 20, 2025 - PRLog -- Climate Green Melbourne, a leading accredited provider of energy-efficient upgrades under the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) Program, has issued a public clarification regarding rebate eligibility. Contrary to a common misconception, these upgrades are not limited to homeowners.
Tenants across Victoria can also benefit from VEU-approved upgrades — provided they have their landlord's permission.

With the rising demand for energy-efficient living and the growing need to reduce electricity bills, many renters have assumed they are excluded from government-supported upgrade programs. Climate Green Melbourne is taking steps to correct this misunderstanding and ensure both homeowners and tenants understand their full rights and opportunities under the VEU scheme.

"Energy efficiency should be accessible to everyone, not just homeowners," said the Climate Green Melbourne Team. "Tenants deserve the same opportunity to lower their energy costs and improve comfort in their homes. With landlord approval, renters can absolutely take advantage of these incentives."

Upgrades Tenants Can Access

With the VEU program and through Climate Green's accredited services, tenants may be eligible for rebates on:

• Reverse-cycle air conditioners (heating & cooling)
• Heat pump hot water systems
• Energy-efficient appliances
• Home weather-sealing products
• LED lighting upgrades
• Other approved energy-saving technologies

These upgrades not only support Victoria's sustainability goals but also help households significantly reduce ongoing energy expenses.

Why Tenants Should Consider VEU Upgrades

• Lower electricity bills
• Greater year-round comfort
• Reduced carbon footprint
• Government-supported cost reductions
• Improved property value and appeal for landlords

Climate Green ensures a streamlined process by handling eligibility checks, product compliance, installation, and all required VEU documentation.

Encouraging Collaboration Between Tenants & Landlords

Climate Green Melbourne is urging renters to start conversations with their landlords early. With no income threshold and broad program eligibility, both parties can benefit: tenants enjoy lower bills, and landlords improve the efficiency and value of their property.
