Energy graduate support

Co-funding for up to 50% of an energy graduate’s salary costs capped at $70,000 over two years, depending on experience and skills.

The scope of the role or projects needs to be defined, such as:

• process and energy flow mapping (energy and mass balances)
• computer based energy modelling
• investigating plant and process modifications, and conducting trials
• investigating fuel switching opportunities
• raising energy savings awareness in the business
• assisting with project commissioning and verifying energy savings and associated carbon reduction.

Your public organisations or private sector businesses may be eligible if:

• you spend more than $1 million a year on energy and have high carbon emissions
• the proposed investigations and employment are not business-as-usual
• your business has a genuine barrier to undertaking the projects without support
• the graduate can be supported and mentored by an energy manager or similar
• the site has an energy management plan/strategy in place.

The role or project must deliver energy savings and carbon reduction which represent good value for government funding.
