Commercial Landlord Pilot

Introduction

The Commercial Landlords Pilot (Pilot) is an ACT Government initiative to support landlords to transition gas heating and/or hot water systems to efficient electric heating and/or hot water.  Specifically, where the heating and/or hot water is centralised and services more than one tenancies.  Support for rooftop solar will also comprise part of the rebate support, where the solar production benefits the tenants of the premises.

Rebates are capped at $50,000 (ex GST) per premises at a maximum rate of 75% rebates.  Expressions of interest with a high co-contribution from the landlords will be ranked of higher value to the Pilot.  Note that strata managers & portfolio managers have the authority (and will be able to present this authority upon request) to make financial decisions to commit to upgrading plant & equipment, on behalf of the building owners & landlord.

There is a maximum of $200,000 (ex GST) available for this Pilot.

This initiative will provide a free onsite assessment and report outlining electrification opportunities.  Rebates will be offered to assist in the upgrade costs and rooftop solar. 

All physical upgrades have to be completed by Friday 12 June 2026, with the Certificate of Occupancy & Use/Certificate of Electrical Safety [COU/CES] and payment remittances for the upgrade submitted to the ACT Government by this date for rebate payments to be able to be made prior to the end of the financial year.  Submissions to claim the rebate later than this date will be deemed ineligible for the rebate.
