Small Business Energy Incentive
The Albanese Government recently introduced the Small Business Energy Incentive, a new initiative aimed at supporting small businesses in cutting their power bills while contributing to the reduction of Australia’s emissions. This incentive offers small businesses with a turnover of less than $50 million an additional 20% tax deduction on a range of essential electrification products, such as batteries, heat pumps, and energy-efficient appliances.
Under this initiative, businesses investing up to $100,000 can receive a bonus tax deduction of $20,000. This provides small businesses with the freedom to choose from a range of options available in the marketplace to lower their energy bills. For example, cafes and restaurants can switch from expensive gas to more energy-efficient commercial induction cooktops, while tradies can replace noisy generators with quieter and more efficient battery-powered alternatives. Additionally, any small business with a hot water system can upgrade to heat pumps made in Australia.
The Small Business Energy Incentive is part of the Government’s broader energy policy, which is aimed at ensuring that all Australians have access to reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy. This initiative is an excellent opportunity for small businesses to reduce their energy bills and contribute to Australia’s emissions reduction targets. The Government believes that supporting small businesses to participate in the energy revolution is essential for a sustainable and prosperous future.
