Electrifying Your Electorate: Savings and Jobs Benefits in NSW


Shifting from gas to electric appliances can save money, address cost of living issues, create jobs and benefit the climate – what’s not to like?

Below you can explore our new, specially-commissioned research which shows the cost of living, jobs and climate benefits of shifting from gas to electric appliances in each NSW electorate, and then send an email direct to your local Member of Parliament with the results. The new analysis shows that, overall, upgrading household energy appliances in NSW will result in:

Over $1 billion

saved on energy costs for NSW citizens per year

1.5M tonnes

of greenhouse gas emissions avoided per year

$898 saved

per year on the energy bill of an average NSW household

It’s also a jobs bonanza waiting to happen. Household energy upgrades could produce 3,529 full-time jobs in installation, and an additional 2,970 in manufacturing if hot water systems were manufactured in NSW.
