You can access discounts to lower the cost of replacing your old lights with new energy-efficient light-emitting diodes, more commonly known as LED lights.
Switching to new energy-efficient LED lights will help you:
- use less energy to unlock long-term cost savings to keep the lights on. For example, if you change 20 halogen downlights to LED downlights, you can save up to $210 a year on your electricity bill.
- reduce how often you need to change a light bulb because LEDs last much longer than halogen and incandescent bulbs
- reduce your environmental footprint and be an active part of reaching net zero by 2050.
How you can save money on new LED lights
Unlike a rebate, the discount on the installation cost of changing to LED lights is provided as an incentive. The incentive is paid directly by an accredited supplier, known as an Accredited Certificate Provider (ACP), who will pass on the discount to you. The accredited supplier is the business you choose to work with to install your new LED lights.
Your discount is set by the accredited supplier and may be different to the incentive amount.
This upfront incentive is in addition to the long-term lower operation costs of more energy-efficient lights.
For more information about the discounts and incentives read our FAQs.
How to access the incentive and install new LED lights
To take advantage of the upgrade incentive and have new LED lights installed, follow these steps.
Important information:
We want to ensure you are always protected. Before you begin, it’s important to know that as a consumer, you have the right to hold certain expectations when buying a product or service from a business. These basic rights are called consumer guarantees and are protected under Australian Consumer Law. Visit the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission website to learn more.
Please also read our terms of service.
Contact an accredited supplier to organise a home or business assessment to check your site’s suitability and your eligibility. Once this is done, the accredited supplier will provide you with a quote.
It’s a good idea to get quotes from more than one supplier to get the best deal and product for your home or business.
To find an accredited supplier:
- find out which region your postcode is in by checking this list
- select one operating in your region from our accredited supplier list on this page.
Important information:
Unfortunately, not all regions will have accredited suppliers operating in them. Accredited suppliers, or ACPs, work independently from the NSW Government. They choose which areas they operate in and what products and services they can offer.
We are working to increase the number of accredited suppliers working in more regions and improve how we connect you with them.
Because every home and business is different, it’s important to choose the LED lights that best suit your lighting needs. When deciding which LED lights are right for you it is important to know that a more energy-efficient model will provide you with a bigger discount.
To choose which brand and model to install you can:
- do your own research and make your own decision, or
- talk to your accredited supplier who can provide advice and help you choose.
Once you’ve chosen your LED lights, let your accredited supplier know so they can arrange for their installation.
Important information:
You may need to make a minimum payment towards the cost of your new LED lights and the installation services. The final cost will vary depending on:
- the model you choose to install
- the design of your home which may influence the complexity of the installation and the need for any additional building work
- the services provided which may include things like travel and transportation costs.
Once you’ve chosen your accredited supplier and the model of LED lights that suit your needs, the accredited supplier will give you a nomination form to complete before any work begins.
Important information:
You must sign and return the nomination form before your installation begins because you won’t be reimbursed for work already completed.
Once you have completed the nomination form, you and your accredited supplier will book an installation date. Either you or your accredited supplier’s licensed electrician will:
- install your new system
- show you how to use it
- safely dispose of or recycle your old LED lights.
If you’d like to use your own licensed electrician, they will need to make a special agreement to do the work with your accredited supplier.
Who to contact if you have questions or issues
If you have any questions about the LED lights upgrade incentive or have issues with your recently installed LED lights, you should contact your accredited supplier directly.
If you are having any issues when dealing with an accredited supplier or a licensed technician, you should contact the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) to make a complaint by emailing [email protected].
For more information, including how to make a complaint, visit IPART’s FAQs website.
