Home energy upgrades are a high-impact way for people to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and energy bills, and increase the comfort of their homes. Despite their benefits to households, the decisions around making home energy upgrades are not easy. They can be expensive, complex, inconvenient and time-consuming.
Understanding the capabilities, opportunities and motivations driving home energy upgrade decisions is the first step in identifying ways to increase uptake. In 2023, BETA ran an online survey with a sample of 4,891 Australians, which provides valuable insights to inform this discussion.
