The Queensland government has started a new program called ClimateSmart Home Service. For $50, a consultant comes into your home, does an energy audit, changes over lights to the compact fluorescent light globes (up to 15), installs a water efficient shower head and provides an energy meter that shows the electricity usage.

The program does not start until January 2009, but you can register your interest here.

According to ClimateSmart.qld.gov.au 75,000 Queenslanders have already signed up for the service. That is really amazing, but confirms that Queensland is quite advanced in energy efficiency.

During our research, we also noticed that Queensland leads the way in how many solar hot water systems are installed. In the last 8 years, it always had the highest uptake from all the Australian states. That trend continued even after the Queensland state rebate ended in 2005.

That shows that government incentives have a positive effect that flows on well into the future of the incentive.
