About electrification

Electrification is the process of replacing technologies or processes that use fossil fuels, with electrically powered equivalents.

This includes switching from gas appliances and petrol fuelled cars to electric heat pumps, cooktops and vehicles -  a pivotal change reshaping Australia’s energy future.

Electrification is for all

Renters

You don’t need to own a home to get started. Plug‑in options like portable induction cooktops, air fryers and efficient electric heating allow renters to cut gas use, lower energy costs and improve air quality without changing the property.

Homeowners

Homeowners can reduce bills and future‑proof their homes by switching to efficient electric appliances. Upgrades like heat‑pump hot water, induction cooking and reverse‑cycle air conditioning improve comfort, cut running costs and can be done gradually over time.

Commuters

Electric vehicles make everyday driving cheaper and simpler. With lower fuel and maintenance costs, home or public charging options, and ranges that easily cover daily trips, EVs are an increasingly accessible choice for more households.
