WaterSmart Business Grants

Grant Description

The WaterSmart Business Grants programme helps Barwon Water’s business and agricultural customers in Victoria implement projects that permanently reduce potable water consumption by at least 500 kL per year. It provides up to 50 percent of direct project costs—capped at $2,363 per megalitre of water saved—and awards grants ranging from $1,182 to $25,000. Key focus areas include substitution of mains drinking water with rainwater, groundwater or surface water; recycling of wastewater for reuse; and the installation of water-efficient fittings, fixtures and practices.
