​There are 6 decisions to make over the next 10 years.

 

Heating and cooling: This is the biggest consumer of energy for households. Switching to a reverse cycle air conditioning system (RCAC) improves air quality at home and uses one-third to one-quarter of the energy of gas systems. 

​

Hot water:  Electric hot water heat pumps use only 25 – 33% of the energy of gas or electric alternatives.

​​

​Induction cooktops: improve indoor air quality and offer a more efficient, faster, cleaner cooking option.

​

Rooftop solar:   Over its lifetime rooftop solar costs about 3 cents per kWh, cheaper than any other source of home energy.

​

Home Battery: Store excess electricity generated by solar panels during the day then use at night or when the sun isn’t shining.

​

​Electric Transport:    EVs are growing in popularity in Australia due to their low maintenance and running costs, low carbon emissions, low noise and long life.
