Westpac backs new energy standards; announces plans for a green home loan offer

21 April 2023

Westpac has today welcomed the Federal Government’s announcement to introduce nationally consistent energy standards for households.

To support Australians building new energy efficient homes, Westpac will launch a new Green Home Loan offer with a discounted interest rate for eligible customers.

Westpac Group CEO Peter King says: “We support the Australian Government’s move to expand energy efficiency standards. We want to encourage customers looking to build a new home to consider more energy efficient designs which could help reduce their emissions and power bills. Along with our existing car loan offer for hybrid or electric vehicles, this announcement is another example of how we’re giving customers more options to support their sustainability goals.”
