A mandatory cashless gaming card, part of the coalition's platform but not Labor's, and rent controls are among policies in the hung parliament strategy due to be outlined at a campaign launch in Sydney on Saturday morning.
Albeit without a designated leader, the party has emerged as a powerful force in NSW politics even though Labor has repeatedly dismissed any talk of forming a minority government with them.
It expects to retain its three lower house seats of Balmain, Newtown and Ballina while potentially taking Labor-held Lismore and Nationals-held Tweed.
Along with Mr Bandt, Senator Mehreen Faruqi will lend her support to the campaign launch, with Lynda-June Coe also taking to the stage.
Ms Coe, a Wiradjuri and Badu Island teacher and activist, hopes to win from No.3 on the Greens' upper house ticket - a feat the party has achieved once, in 2011.
The independents could also be crucial in forming a minority government after the March 25 election, and the coalition on Friday took aim at their competition in the wealthy eastern and northern seats of Sydney.
Treasurer Matt Kean accused teal independent Helen Conway of being a "fraud" for working for oil giant Caltex nearly 25 years ago.
"She's built her entire career on the back of Big Oil. Helen Conway's teal T-shirts should be smeared in black oil," he said.
Ms Conway's policy positions are mostly locally focused but include commitments to legislate a 60 per cent emissions reduction target by 2030, and ban new fossil fuel projects.
Ms Conway described Mr Kean's comments as "a little unbecoming" and "quite juvenile".
"I've been on exactly the same transition route as our whole community, so as the science has evolved we've all moved along that path," she said.
"But unfortunately, Mr Kean hasn't. He has approved 18 of those 26 fossil fuel projects (approved under the coalition) ... The evidence speaks for itself."
Fellow teal independent Jacqui Scruby lent her support to Ms Conway on Friday, criticising Mr Kean's "violent and aggressive" language.
"This isn't a contest of ideas - this is just targeting her," she told AAP.
Meanwhile, Labor leader Chris Minns and his deputy, Prue Car, began their Saturday at Nepean River parkrun, ahead of a visit to the Greens-held Balmain.
The party will later announce an extra $23 million in state funding over four years for Surf Life Saving NSW, should Labor win the election.
Elsewhere, the coalition said it would double places available in its re-launched Beyond the Line program, if re-elected.
The program takes up to 200 undergraduates each year on a week-long tour of rural and remote schools to promote the lifestyle to fledging educators.
"Having worked as a regional teacher previously, our regional, rural and remote communities are fantastic places to live and work and we want to be able to showcase that to the next generation of student teachers," Deputy Premier Paul Toole said.
