Do the Bright Thing
Through a range of initiatives, the Queensland Government is committed to doing our bit to tackle climate change. The benefits for Queenslanders go beyond a cleaner and more sustainable environment. We aim to make green energy cheaper, reduce household electricity bills and boost the growing renewable energy sector.
Solar energy
Congratulations Queensland! We’ve doubled the household usage of solar energy in less than two years – more than three years ahead of schedule. Switching to solar power or solar hot water at home can reduce electricity bills and reduce carbon emissions, and Queenslanders are leading the way.
