The Green Loans Program helps Australians make the right choices for home and budget, by in-home free assessments.
A tailored FREE Home Sustainability Assessment coupled with access to interest free Green Loan products of up to $10,000 will enable home owners to make improvements and reap the savings for less energy and water used around their homes.
Getting a free Home Sustainability Assessment is the first step to qualify for a Green Loan product from a financial partner.
The Australian Government will subsidise the interest on a Green loan of up to $10,000 for a period of four years - which means it's interest free for that period.
The Australian Government’s Green Loans Program is funding:
free home sustainability assessments and interest-free Green Loans for recommended improvements.
The assessment uncovers the best energy and water savings options for your home, plus practical ideas to get you
started. In some cases it may be as simple as switching to energy efficient light bulbs, repairing leaking taps, sealing, draught or proofing products.
Your assessment may also recommend bigger projects like installing solar panels, grey water filtration systems and
rainwater tanks. To take that next step, you could apply for a Green Loan of up to $10,000 interest-free for four years.
Having your free home sustainability assessment is the first step to qualifying for a Green Loan.
Through Green Loans the Government is creating greener homes—ultimately helping around 360,000 Australian
households save energy and water and look after the environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Through the Green Loans Program, householders will be able to access a free, comprehensive Home Sustainability Assessment to reduce their energy and water bills, increase the comfort of their home and help reduce damaging carbon pollution.
An independent assessment by an accredited FairlaneGreen assessor will provide advice ranging from the smallest behaviour change to investments such as a solar hot water system or photovoltaic panels. The assessment will involve the physical inspection of major energy and water systems relating to thermal comfort, water heating, lighting, refrigeration, cooking, entertainment, water efficiency and outdoor consumption, and waste management.
Your assessment will take around 1.5 hours depending on the amount of information readily available, the size of your
property and the number of energy and water systems to check. A few weeks after your assessment you receive a tailored home sustainability assessment report which is valid for
six months. Your report recommends the best water and energy saving changes you can make to your property and
practical information to help you get started.
