Rebates to help small business go electric

SMALL businesses can now access ACT government rebates of up to $10,000 to help transition workplaces and work practices away from gas to electric appliances.

Businesses with fewer than 20 employees will be eligible for up to $10,000 in support through energy efficiency rebates. The maximum rebate for electric-to-electric upgrades is $5000 (incl GST), while gas-to-electric upgrade rebates are capped at $10,000 (incl GST).

The government says switching to electric appliances will make these businesses more sustainable, both environmentally and in helping save money on overhead costs, particularly if they install solar panels or choose zero-emissions vehicles for their fleet.
