TEELS (Tasmanian Energy Efficiency Loan Scheme)

The new government Tasmanian Energy Efficicency Loan Scheme (TEELS) is open!

The program provides financial assistance to help Tasmanians purchase energy efficient products and services. TEELS is open to all Tasmanian households and small businesses. Household loans of $500 to $10,000 are available now, with an interest-free period of 3 years. It's one loan per person, but multiple people from the same household can apply, and you can bundle as many eligible products and services into your loan application as you like. Total value can be more than $10,000 - that is just the maximum amount for the loan. Small business loans will be available for between $10,000 and $40,000 (please note this part of the scheme is still being finalised). Get quotes on eligible quality products and services through our social enterprise website so you don't miss out.
