About the Program

The 'Victorian Energy Upgrades' program is a Victorian state government initiative designed to reduce the demand on the electricity grid and help Victorians reduce their power bills. Property owners and tenants can have their existing lightbulbs upgraded to LED energy saving bulbs for free. Most households can expect a saving of up to $500 per year simply by upgrading their light bulbs. 

As an accredited provider of the VEU program, we can have a fully-licensed electrician come to your home and change all of your bulbs for free. Give us a call or fill in the Booking Form on the website and we will contact you to arrange an appointment.

See below for a further description and photos of the light bulbs eligible for upgrade.
