ADELAIDE CITY COUNCIL REBATES
Adelaide City Council’s Incentives for Sustainability
Adelaide City Council’s Incentives for Sustainability program incentivises residents to switch from gas or wood-burning appliances to electric or solar-powered alternatives, promoting a more sustainable lifestyle. The rebate covers 50% of the out-of-pocket costs for replacing your existing gas or wood-burning appliance, offering a maximum rebate amount of $1,000, making the transition more affordable.
The program targets a variety of appliances that traditionally rely on gas or wood for fuel. This could include: Hot water systems: Replacing a gas hot water heater with an electric heat pump or solar hot water system. Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems: Upgrading from a gas furnace to an electric heat pump for both heating and cooling. Cooking appliances: Switching your gas stovetop or oven to an electric model, and more.
