Small businesses can receive free energy assessments to help identify ways to save money by reducing your energy bills, being more energy efficient or switching to renewables.
To be eligible, your business must:
- have fewer than 20 full-time equivalent employees
- be located in properties in the North Sydney local government area
- own the property where you are located OR have a lease agreement of 5 (five) or more years starting January 2024
Your energy assessment will be conducted by an energy efficiency audit expert, and will include:
- energy bill comparison
- an onsite level 2 energy audit walk-through
- a detailed report including data analysis, a checklist of energy savings opportunities, relevant resources, and links to rebates and relevant grants
- opportunities for renewables, solar power, solar batteries and more where applicable
If your business meets the eligibility criteria and you want to register for a checkup, please complete the expression of interest form and our energy assessor will be in touch.
The data analysis and report are intended to give small businesses information about the best ways to reduce their energy bills, improve energy efficiency and take up renewables. As per Council's data collection and privacy policies, business-level data is never published. Any data from energy audits published or included in reports will be aggregated and anonymised, unless specifically and formally authorised by the business owner, to promote successful case studies.
