Clean energy loans for Australia's clean energy future

More than 440 Clean Energy Home Loans to help our customers green their homes

We offer a range of ways to help people, businesses and not-for-profits lower emissions and transition Australia to a clean emissions future.

Highlights

Our Clean Energy Home Loan rewards customers buying or building green homes or making ambitious green upgrades

We lend to green, affordable and community-focused housing projects that are helping to make our cities and regions more sustainable. 

What is clean energy?

Clean energy is about switching to renewables and using less energy. It’s a key part of transitioning to a future with low or zero emissions. Our clean energy lending is focused on including both our operational emissions and the emissions we finance in our lending portfolio.

Why we do clean energy loans

We’ve got a target to reach net zero by 2035, including both our operational emissions and the emissions we finance in our lending portfolio. We accept the science of climate change, and the impact of non-renewable fossil fuels on the environment and our climate are well documented. Now, more than ever, we must transition to a decarbonised world.

Bank Australia’s policy

We don’t lend to the fossil fuel industry. Read more about our negative screens for coal, oil and gas and related industries.
