Department of The Environment, Climate Change, Energy and Water
Welcome to the
Department of the Environment, Climate Change, Energy and Water.
The ACT Government has established our Department to consolidate and build on our capacity to respond to climate change.
Our vision is to make Canberra known not just as the national capital but also the solar capital — a model for other communities to follow.
The ACT Government offers advice, as well as numerous rebates and incentives to help you make your home, garden, school or business more energy and water efficient.
