How to Maximise Your STC and VEU Rebates in 2025: A Step-by-Step Guide for Victorian Homeowners

How to Maximise Your STC and VEU Rebates in 2025: A Step-by-Step Guide for Victorian Homeowners

By Greentastic Pty Ltd

Are you planning to upgrade your home’s heating, cooling, or hot water systems in 2025? Then it’s the perfect time to take advantage of STC (Small-scale Technology Certificates) and VEU (Victorian Energy Upgrades) rebates. These government-backed programs can help Victorian homeowners slash upfront costs, improve energy efficiency, and reduce long-term power bills.

Here’s your step-by-step guide to making the most of both rebates this year.


✅ Step 1: Understand What You’re Eligible For

  • VEU Rebates: Designed for Victorian residents, VEU rebates offer significant savings on approved energy-efficient products, such as reverse cycle air conditioners and hot water heat pumps.

  • STC Rebates: These are available across Australia for renewable energy systems, especially heat pump water heaters. They are issued based on how much energy your upgrade will save over time.

You can combine both rebates if you’re installing an eligible product.


✅ Step 2: Choose VEU-Approved Products

When selecting your system:

  • Make sure the product is VEU-approved

  • Confirm it also qualifies for STC if installing a heat pump

At Greentastic, we only supply and install products that meet government eligibility criteria—saving you time and paperwork.


✅ Step 3: Work with an Accredited Installer (Like Greentastic)

The installer must be:

  • VEU-Experienced (we are)

  • CEC accredited for STCs (we partner with qualified professionals)

Our team handles the rebate claims, so you don’t have to worry about complex forms or registration.


✅ Step 4: Apply Early – Don’t Miss Out!

Rebate rates change each year, and the sooner you apply, the better the return. In 2025, demand is expected to increase as more households shift to energy-efficient solutions.


✅ Step 5: Track Your Savings

After installation:

  • You’ll see instant rebates on your invoice

  • Expect long-term savings of 30–70% on power bills, depending on your system
