Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has announced a new fast track process so that homeowners can start applying for free ceiling insulation immediately.

Through the Government’s $3.9 billion Energy Efficient Homes Package, households can now apply for one of the following upgrades from today:

  • The Homeowner Insulation Program. This installs free ceiling insulation (capped at $1,600) in the homes of eligible owner-occupiers.
  • The Low Emission Assistance Plan for Renters. This provides assistance of up to $1,000 for installing insulation in private rental properties.
  • The Solar Hot Water Rebate. This provides rebates of up to $1,600 for installation of solar hot water systems.

See the website for more information on the Energy Efficient Homes Package.
