Bellarine electorate
Alison MARCHANT (Bellarine) (14:56): (1065) My question is to the Minister for Climate Action. Minister, can you provide the number of constituents in the Bellarine electorate who participated in the Solar Homes program? With solar now installed on approximately 30 per cent of homes across Victoria, up 14 per cent from 2018, the Solar Homes program has played a key role in enabling households to reduce energy costs and lower emissions through rebates, interest-free loans on solar panels, hot-water systems and solar batteries. Given the strong commitment to sustainability and emissions reduction in the Bellarine electorate, I look forward to the response on how local residents have engaged with and benefited from this program.
