Sydney, 17 June 2026 — The NSW Government has named Brighte as an official launch finance provider for its new Home Energy Saver loan program, giving eligible NSW households access to loans of up to $15,000 at 0% interest to upgrade to solar, batteries, heat pumps and other home energy improvements.
From today, eligible NSW homeowners can go to brighte.com.au, confirm their eligibility and request a quote from an accredited installer. Every installer in the Brighte network is NETCC accredited and governed by Brighte's vendor assurance program. Approved households can borrow up to $15,000 at 0% interest, with no establishment or account-keeping fees, repayable over up to 10 years.
Katherine McConnell, CEO, Brighte said "Upfront cost is the biggest reason NSW households don't upgrade their homes. This program removes that barrier — eligible households can borrow up to $15,000 with zero interest and zero fees. That's a genuine difference for families who've been putting this off."
"Brighte is purpose-built for exactly this. We have the largest accredited installer network in NSW, and we've spent a decade making the process of finding an installer, applying for finance and getting the job done as simple and fast as possible.”
Brighte will assess, approve and manage loans under the program, and accredit and onboard the installers delivering the work. Brighte has issued more than $2.5 billion in home energy loans across its decade of operation, with a network of 2,600+ accredited vendors nationwide.
The NSW program adds to Brighte's track record of delivering government-backed energy finance, including the ACT Sustainable Household Scheme, the Tasmanian Energy Saver Loan Scheme, and programs with the Clean Energy Finance Corporation and the Australian Renewable Energy Agency. Brighte also connects Commonwealth Bank customers to its accredited installer network through CBA's Home Energy Upgrades program.
