The Federal Government is chipping-in and helping householders to install green house friendly hot water technologies.

Rebates of $1000 are available to eligible circumstances, for installation of solar or heat pump systems (but only for the replacement of electric hot water storage systems).

This measure will mean householders can save money and help fight global warming.

2. NSW State Government Rebate
   
   As well as the federal government all of the state governments are getting behind the replacement of electric hot water systems. The NSW government’s $340 million climate change fund is helping business householders, schools and governments save energy and water. Water heating is the biggest energy user in NSW homes.

3. Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) Points
   
   Renewable energy certificates were developed under the mandatory renewable energy target (MRET) designed to reduce manufactures from building environmentally unfriendly systems.
   
   Renewable Energy Certificates (REC POINTS) are point accumulated from the zone where the householder lives in and the efficiency of the system installed.
   
   The installation of solar and heat pumps maybe eligible to create renewable energy certificates. These certificates have a dollar value on them depending on where you live in Australia (value is worked out by the position and radiation strength of the sun).
   
   
   • Find out where you are positioned.
   
   
   Registered agents will generally pay the householder for the right to create these R.E.C points. This mean the registered agent will buy your energy certificates off you reducing the overall cost of the hot water system.
   
   
   • Check if the manufacture of the system who your thinking of installing is a registered agent.

YES! Eligible householders will be able to get all of the above rebates for the same installation.
