Every dollar the government owes your roof.
Every solar rebate and battery incentive available in Victoria right now, in plain English: what each scheme is actually worth, who qualifies, and how we claim them all for you — before you pay a cent.
Federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program — ~30% off
Since July 2025, the Commonwealth discounts roughly 30% off the installed cost of an eligible home battery. On a typical 13.5kWh system, that’s thousands of dollars — deducted from your quote up front, not refunded later.
Who qualifies
- ✓ You own the property (homes, small businesses and community facilities are all in scope).
- ✓ The battery is on the approved product list, between 5kWh and 100kWh.
- ✓ It’s paired with new or existing solar panels.
- ✓ Installation is done by an accredited installer — that’s us.
Why timing matters
The discount rate is tied to the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme and steps down every calendar year until it ends in 2030. Each year you wait, the same battery costs more. Signing a quote locks your install into the current rate.
One more thing: the rebate can be combined with state incentives — including Solar Victoria support — and we apply the stack automatically.
STCs — the discount already baked into every panel quote
Small-scale Technology Certificates are the federal incentive for rooftop solar. The bigger your system and the sunnier your zone, the more certificates it earns — typically worth a few thousand dollars on a family-sized system.
No forms for you
We calculate your STC value, deduct it from your quote, and handle the certificate creation and trade. The price you see is the price after the discount.
It shrinks annually
Like the battery rebate, STC value reduces each January as the scheme winds down toward 2030. Earlier installs earn more certificates.
Approved gear only
STCs only apply to Clean Energy Council listed panels and inverters installed by accredited professionals — the only kind we fit anyway.
Solar Victoria — up to $1,400 plus an interest-free loan
Eligible Victorian owner-occupiers can claim the state solar panel rebate on top of the federal schemes, with the option of an interest-free loan matching the rebate amount. Income and property value caps apply — we confirm your eligibility as part of your free quote so there are no surprises.
