We regulate participants and products in the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program to deliver energy efficiency improvements which are more affordable for consumers, and reduces their long term energy consumption.
Victorian Energy Upgrades program
The Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program reduces greenhouse gases by providing access to discounted energy efficient products and services.
We regulate participants and products to provide confidence in the benefits delivered to consumers and a balanced, transparent and efficient program for participants.

Featured work
In 2017 we created 8.5 million Victorian energy efficiency certificates, each one equal to one ton of greenhouse gas abated by energy-saving products. We also passed 50 million certificates created since the program commenced in 2009.
Our registers provide information about program participants and activities undertaken in the program. Accredited persons can also access the VEEC calculator to find out how many certificates their energy efficiency upgrade can generate.
We have proposed a new framework to minimise safety risks associated with the replacement of lamps, in particular compact fluorescent lamps (activity 21A of the Victorian Energy Efficiency Target Regulations 2018).
