Taking pressure off the grid. 

And helping to take pressure off your energy bills.

And with 20,000 batteries installed in the first month - it's clear that our Cheaper Home Batteries program is going to make a big difference.

Every battery installed is a huge win for the family that installs it. 

Saving them significantly on their energy bills - permanently.

But did you know it's also a win for all Australians. 

Each battery installed reduces peak demand.

Some huge news on Cheaper Home Batteries.

Ep. 309: Climate Ambition with Chris Bowen is Out Now

Federal Labor Minister Chris Bowen wants Australia to be on the frontlines of the fight against climate change.

And he’s in a hurry.

While Labor was focused on making medicines cheaper and cutting your HECS by 20%, this is what the Liberals and Nationals were up to in Canberra the last two weeks...

The Coalition are at it again.

No matter the year Labor ❤️ Medicare

We're building on progress

It seems like the coalition will never learn. 

The experts at CSIRO have once again revealed that renewable energy is the cheapest form of generation.

We’re fighting climate change. 
They’re fighting with themselves.

Working with the Pacific, we're highlighting the impacts of climate change, and the opportunities of the energy transition.

Pleased to welcome my friends Tuvalu Prime Minister Feleti Teo and UNFCCC Secretary Simon Stiell to Australia. We are acting on climate change because it’s in our national interest.

Experts agree - Australia has the best wind and sun to power our future and we’re harnessing it to secure the better, fairer energy system our nation deserves.

While we are getting on with the job of the energy transition, the coalition are debating whether climate change is real and continuing to pursue their slow, risky nuclear energy fantasy.

New independent analysis released today confirms that the Albanese Labor Government’s renewable energy plan for cheaper, cleaner energy is the right plan for Australian businesses and homes.

The Coalition are at it again. More denial, less action.

#BREAKING: Members of the Coalition just voted with Pauline Hanson’s One Nation to take Australia backwards and scrap Net Zero emissions. They just don’t get it.

That's how many Cheaper Home Batteries we've delivered in just four weeks.

The Albanese Labor Government is securing the jobs of the future by backing more Australian iron. 

Our $44.9M investment in Calix for its Zero Emissions Steel Technology will see it use renewable electricity and hydrogen to make iron. 

That means securing local jobs now and into the future.

More than 12,000 Australians have jumped at the opportunity to cut their power bills for good - slashing up to 90 per cent off their energy bill from day one.

Rooftop solar is a Labor legacy and Cheaper Home Batteries will be delivered through the existing Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme. The same tried-and-tested way that rooftop solar discounts have been sustainably delivered since 2011.

Australia is a solar nation – with the highest rate of rooftop solar anywhere in the world.

All in just the last 24 days

An important message from the Coalition

The latest Australian Energy Market Operator Connections Scorecard shows the Albanese Government’s Reliable Renewables Plan is on going well and building more momentum, with 4.4GW of capacity reaching full output this year - double last year’s total.

Labor is investing in more renewables and storage right now, ensuring we create the clean, fairer, reliable and resilient energy system that Australians deserve.

Our Cheaper Home Batteries policy is bringing down bills and emissions for good, today I got to update parliament on progress including which suburb has installed the most batteries under the policy ✅

BREAKING: Shadow Minister Dan Tehan refuses to rule out the Liberals voting to repeal all climate laws, including Howard era renewable energy targets.

While the world moves forward on climate action, the Coalition still wants to take the country backwards.
