The Energy Efficient Homes Package was an Australian government program implemented by the Rudd Government. It was designed by the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet and was administered by the Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts. The program consisted of two streams:
- Home Insulation Program, which was beset by controversy[1] when the deaths of four workers in separate incidents were linked to the program,[2] and the government under-estimated the level of risk involved;[3] and
- Solar Hot Water Rebate Program.
Other programs that were closely tied in with the Energy Efficient Homes Package were the Green Loans Scheme (changed to the Green Loans Program and then the Green Start program, and later abolished),[4] Living Greener, National Solar Schools, and the National Rainwater and Greywater Initiative (administered by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities).[5]
