Financial incentives for NSW businesses to improve their energy efficiency

Overview

The Energy Savings Scheme (ESS) provides NSW businesses with financial incentives to invest in projects which will reduce their energy consumption. Incentives are available to install new equipment or modify a current system.

Different equipment and processes are eligible, including but not limited to:

• lighting
• heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems
• motors, fans and pumps
• compressed air systems
• refrigeration
• power systems
• hot water and steam systems
• furnaces
• adding a battery to a solar system.

Any work undertaken must be done in conjunction with a government-approved supplier. These approved suppliers are known as Accredited Certificate Providers (ACP’s). An ACP will explain the process and assist you to get the incentive.
