Overview

Only accredited persons are able to create certificates under the Victorian Energy Upgrades program. To become an accredited person, you must:

  • open a VEU account
  • submit a completed application form for accreditation (together will all requested supporting documentation)
  • pay the $500 accreditation fee (once you have been invoiced by us).

We will decide whether to approve or refuse an application for accreditation. We will refuse an application which does not comply with section 9 of the Victorian Energy Efficiency Target (VEET) Act.  

If you are applying for accreditation, or for those already accredited, approval to undertake project-based activities, gas efficiency activities, public lighting upgrade (activity 27) or non-building based lighting upgrade (activity 35) and certain lighting upgrade activities, you will need to apply on application forms tailored for that particular activity.

Access the appropriate application form (based on the nature of the activity you wish to undertake under the program) in the application forms tab.
