CEC submission on minimum standards for Victorian rental properties & rooming houses

Energy performance is an ongoing concern for Australian households, with rental properties less likely to have energy efficient appliances and access to consumer energy resources. The CEC commends the Victorian Government for the prioritisation of minimum standards in rental properties, placing the state as a national leader in energy performance requirements for renters. 

We view these changes as essential steps in achieving Victoria’s clean energy transition and ensuring equality for traditionally excluded consumer groups in energy policy.
