IPART has published updated guidance for hot water heater applications. This guidance broadly aligns with the latest Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) framework while incorporating NSW-specific requirements. The new materials aim to streamline application processes and improve clarity for Scheme Participants. 

Key updates include: 

  • New instructions for using the TESSA system, including application procedures and system requirements.
  • Five new documents now available on IPART’s website, featuring updated guides and declaration templates. 

What participants need to do: 

  • Review the new guidance, especially the updated TESSA upload requirements (note: ZIP files are no longer accepted).
  • Begin using the new declaration templates for all hot water heater applications.
  • Stay tuned for the release of a detailed TESSA User Guide specific to hot water applications. 

These updates are part of IPART’s ongoing efforts to support compliance and improve the efficiency of application processes under the Energy Sustainability Schemes.
