Sustainable Australia Fund

Sustainable Australia Fund is a specialized financier that provides capital for building owners to invest in environmental upgrades. The company's mission is to finance a better future by improving the efficiency and sustainability of the built environment. It was originally established in 2002 by the City of Melbourne as the Sustainable Melbourne Fund, a first-of-its-kind environmental finance company. After expanding its services, it was privatized in 2019 and rebranded to Sustainable Australia Fund to serve a national market. They facilitate Environmental Upgrade Agreements (EUAs), which are tripartite agreements between a building owner, a local council, and a financier, enabling long-term financing for projects like solar installations, energy efficiency retrofits, and water conservation measures.
