Enforcement action against B&G Green Trading Pty Ltd

6 May 2025

The commission has taken enforcement action against accredited business B&G Green Trading Pty Ltd (trading as Aussie Greenmarks) for allegedly breaching the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program rules. 

Alleged breach 

Aussie Greenmarks allegedly breached the VEU program rules by creating non-compliant Victorian energy efficiency certificates for a household air conditioning upgrade where evidence of consumer consent was not provided. 

An installer carried out the upgrade on behalf of Aussie Greenmarks. Aussie Greenmarks, as the accredited business, is responsible for making sure certificates they create and any installer acting on their behalf, comply with the VEU program rules. 

Our decision 

We have: 

• Refused registration of 34 pending certificates created by Aussie Greenmarks for the upgrade, valued at over $3,000 (as at 6 May 2025). 
• Warned Aussie Greenmarks against future non-compliance and reminded them that they must have adequate systems to ensure compliance. 

Note: the certificate value on this page is based on the spot price of $90.75 as at 6 May 2025. 

Aussie Greenmarks was notified of this decision on 18 March 2025. The decision was subject to a 30 business day review period, which ended on 1 May 2025. Aussie Greenmarks did not seek a review of the decision.
