As Australians navigate energy efficiency challenges, electricians are set to play a pivotal role in helping homeowners reduce their carbon footprint.

Connected technologies are revolutionising how energy is utilised in homes and buildings, placing consumers at the centre of this transformation. With the journey towards becoming ‘prosumers’—proactive consumers who generate and manage their own energy—gaining traction, the role of electricians is evolving to support this shift.

Australians face significant challenges in their energy efficiency journeys, including the complexity of new technologies and the costs associated with upgrading existing systems. Despite these obstacles, there are several actions homeowners can take to reduce their carbon footprint, a crucial consideration as households account for 43% of the nation’s greenhouse gas emissions.

Chris Kerr, the CEO of Clipsal, joins to share his key insights and journey to becoming a ‘prosumer’.
