IEEFA Webinar: How to Halve Renters' Energy Bills
Join the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis for a webinar on how to lower energy costs for millions of renters across Australia.
Renters make up over 30% of Australian households, yet they risk losing out amid the mass uptake of rooftop solar, batteries and other energy upgrades. The root cause is the “split incentive” problem, where landlords have little or nothing to gain from investing in energy efficiency because tenants are responsible for paying the energy bills.
Johanna Bowyer, Lead Australian Electricity Analyst for IEEFA, will facilitate an informative discussion with Jay Gordon, IEEFA Energy Finance Analyst, Australian Electricity, and Kellie Caught, Program Director, Climate and Energy, ACOSS, focused on practical, cost-effective home energy upgrades that can significantly reduce renters’ energy bills, and the key policy initiatives to enable them.
The resulting benefits may extend well beyond the rental market, with significant savings in gas and peak electricity demand offering an opportunity to reduce energy system costs for all consumers. Live Q&A included.
A recording of the webinar will be shared with all registrants.
