NT GOVERNMENT SMART ENERGY GRANT STARTS 2 JANUARY 2018
July 1, 2019
Are your power bills through the roof? Do you have an old air conditioning unit that is costing you more than it's worth? The NT Government have just announced a new $4 million scheme for Territory homeowners which will allow you to upgrade your old air conditioning unit with a new energy efficient inverter, all while the Government will foot half the bill up to $1000.
How it Works!
The Smart Energy Grant will be a voucher system with the NT Government paying 50% of the bill up to $1000. To be eligible to avail of this grant you must currently reside in the NT and own a residential or investment property. If you are a member of the NT pensioner and carer’s scheme you will only be asked to contribute 25%. This mean it has never been more affordable to undertake improvements to your home to be more energy efficient and reduce that power bill we all dread so much.
How do I know if I qualify for a New Air Conditioner?
To avail of a new energy efficient air conditioning unit your existing system must be at least 6 years old and the new air conditioning system must meet the minimum energy efficiency star ratings:
| Cooling Output | Energy Efficiency Star Rating |
|---|---|
| Up to 3kW |
At least 5 stars |
| 3.1kW to 5kW |
At least 3.5 stars |
| 5.1kW to 7kW |
At least 3 stars |
| 7.1kW to 8kW |
At least 2.5 stars |
| Above 8kW |
At least 2 stars |
This might sound like a lot to consider. However, when you choose Advanced Air we guarantee that we will make sure that all of these conditions are met, and you can have a stress free installation of a brand new energy efficient inverter air conditioning unit.
How do I Apply?
