Getting a Solar Battery Rebate–Save on Power Bills in Victoria!

NEWS

What is the solar battery rebate program?

In its ongoing effort to promote and support the widespread use of solar energy, Solar Victoria is awarding households in the state with a point-of-sale discount of up to $3,500.00 to install a solar battery.

To be eligible for this rebate program, applicants must first get in touch with an approved solar retailer, such as KDEC, to request a quote regarding the installation of solar batteries along with PV panels and other related systems. These systems must be included in Solar Victoria’s list of approved products.

Once approved, the solar retailer will claim the rebate on the applicant’s behalf. The rebate value will then be deducted from the total cost of the system and its installation. Any remaining outstanding balance will be handled by the applicant.

Am I eligible to receive a rebate?

In addition to residing in Victoria, applicants must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible for the solar battery rebate:

 The applicant is the owner/occupant of the property where the system will be installed

  • The applicant has not yet received a rebate through the Solar Homes Program
  • The property where the system will be installed has not yet participated in the Solar Homes Program
  • The value of the property is under $3 million according to the current council rates notice
  • The combined taxable income of all household members/occupants is less than $180,000 a year
  • The property doesn’t have an existing energy storage system
  • The property already has solar PV panels with a capacity of 5kW or greater or the owner of the property is arranging to have the panels installed along with a solar battery
  • The approval from the Distributed Network Service Provider regarding the connection of the solar battery to the grid has been obtained
  • The applicant agrees to receive information from the Distribution Network Service Provider about taking part in battery trials.
