Submetering grants for NSW businesses to increase energy efficiency available now
Metering and monitoring systems are a cost-effective way for NSW businesses to manage and reduce their energy use.
These systems use a combination of hardware and software to collect and analyse data about energy performance. This data can then be used to help businesses save energy and cut costs. A well-planned and designed metering and monitoring system can save your business energy and money.
The NSW Government are investing $12 million to support businesses throughout the metering and monitoring process. This metering package will include support to install meters and access expert services to develop comprehensive metering and monitoring plans. This will help businesses overcome some of the barriers to implementing energy efficiency projects.
The metering package includes the following offers. Each offer will support businesses at a different stage of the metering and monitoring process. These offers will be rolled out over the next 5 years.
