Yesterday was a big day for renewable energy announcements! We welcome @spenderallegra’s Energy Bill Relief Plan to support households on all incomes to have better access to efficient electric appliances like batteries. https://t.co/N0MQnuqZ7t
Action on cost-of-living & climate must be a priority for the next parliament. Home energy upgrades deliver both.
My Permanent Energy Bill Relief Plan would help over 800,000 households lower their bills for good, with support for batteries, solar, and home energy upgrades.
We're excited to announce that Francis Vierboom has been appointed CEO of Rewiring Australia. He follows the amazing legacy left by our outgoing CEO Dan Cass, who has been a tireless advocate for a fair energy transition. Head to our website for more info: https://t.co/UNi4YkDhXk
Join our co-founder Dr Saul Griffith for https://t.co/VEbM8M3OO1's 22 Mins with... as he explores cutting-edge renewable energy innovations with renowned Stanford professor Mark Jacobson⚡️🌍Livestreaming on https://t.co/VEbM8M3OO1’s YouTube, LinkedIn, X & FB Jan 23 at 12PM EST
By electrifying your appliances, you can enjoy lower energy bills & a healthier home, but it doesn't have to be done all at once. Lori is slowly upgrading her home & replaced her gas ducted heating to reverse cycle AC & saved $400 on her winter bill! #electrifyeverything
The average Australian household spends $2700 per year filling their car with petrol, so it's great to see the government subsidise cheaper loans to help our essential workers and low to middle-income workers reduce that cost of living pressure: https://t.co/zKBk9kC5ZR
Rewiring Australia endorses the Victorian Government's push to phase out expensive gas appliances, which will lower energy bills and emissions for households across the state. Read our full response: https://t.co/FloNWsuHuy
CSIRO confirms today that building a nuclear power station would cost twice as much as renewables. And we already know nuclear couldn't be built fast enough to bring people's bills down. https://t.co/t7NBHx09ca
Good news for summer cooling! More renewable energy & battery projects will help keep homes powered, counteracting the risk from coal outages. AEMO reports increased clean energy capacity, boosting grid resilience against heatwaves & extreme weather https://t.co/dVqx81RITR
A big congratulations to @Bowenchris, @AlboMP and @JEChalmers on the passing of the Future Made In Australia package. This new legislation will put Australia in step with other countries investing in their own futures, creating jobs and competition within their own economies.
👏@AlboMPgovernment & @Greens on agreeing to an additional $500m investment to electrify & retrofit 50,000 social homes. Congrats to the outstanding work of our partners in the #RenewAustraliaforAll coalition, which strongly advocated for electrification of low-income households
#BREAKING The Greens were up all last night in 11th hour negotiations with Labor and I’m happy to say we've locked in some good outcomes.
1. $500m for public & community housing upgrades
2. Coal, oil and gas projects will get $0 from Future Made In Australia
Our co-founder and chief scientist @GriffithSaul recently spoke at the international climate tech conference #VERGE24, where the Electrify 2515 Community Pilot gets a shout out on the global stage! 🌎Check it out➡️https://t.co/IFmryJuVQZ
4 million homes in Australia now have rooftop solar! We’re calling on further household electrification incentives for all Australian residences to unlock the true economic and environmental benefits of solar power. Read more 👇https://t.co/RNcJgtH9u6
