Victoria Builds Skills for a Sustainable Future: Free Training on Energy-Efficient Homes!

Imagine a home that feels cool in summer and warm in winter, with minimal energy bills and a positive impact on the environment. That's the vision behind the Victorian Government's exciting new Renewable Homes Construction Program. This initiative is all about empowering builders with the knowledge and skills to design and construct super-efficient homes – a win-win for residents and the planet!

The program offers a comprehensive training package, equipping builders with the expertise to create cutting-edge 7-star rated, all-electric homes. Here's a glimpse into what the program offers:

• National Construction Code (NCC) 2022 Savvy: Builders will be trained on the latest NCC regulations, ensuring homes are comfortable, accessible, and remarkably energy-efficient. This translates to significant cost savings for residents, with estimates suggesting potential energy bill reductions of over $4,200 annually!

• Home Efficiency Construction Roadshows: Picture a series of informative workshops hosted across Melbourne and regional Victoria. These interactive sessions will delve into topics like passive house principles (think smart design for natural heating and cooling), solar power integration, and best practices for achieving airtightness – crucial for optimal energy performance.
