Overview
Rewiring Australia started the movement that is transforming how Australians power their homes, businesses, transport and industries. The organisation demonstrates that going electric is beneficial for the climate, saves money, and creates healthier homes and communities.
Mission and focus areas
Our mission is to enable every Australian to make the switch to electric. The organisation focuses on providing a vision for electrification across the economy, including households, business, industry, agriculture and governments. Key focus areas include addressing the “missing middle” in energy regulation (100KW – 5MW projects), advocating for faster connection processes for distributed energy, and promoting the transition from gas to all-electric homes.
Structure and governance
The organisation operates as a non-profit entity and works through evidence-based research, coalition-building, and direct engagement with decision-makers at state and federal levels.
Programs and offerings
Programs include Electric Saul, a free practical guide and online tool created in partnership with Google to provide personalised advice on home electrification. It also supports Electric Communities, helping local groups advocate for systemic changes and support households in transitioning to electric appliances and vehicles.
