Solar & battery rebates, explained plainly

The incentives are real but they’re shrinking — here’s what’s live in 2026, in plain English, with no vague promises.

Federal · Solar

The solar rebate is built into your price

The federal Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme gives you an upfront discount through Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs), based on your system size and location. You don’t claim it back — it’s already in the price we quote. The catch: it steps down every year and ends in 2030, so the same system is subsidised less the longer you wait.

Federal · Battery

The battery rebate changed the game

From mid-2025 the federal Cheaper Home Batteries program cut roughly a third off the installed cost of home storage. Paired with today’s low feed-in tariffs, that’s what’s finally made keeping your own power after dark worth it.

The Fine Print

The other numbers that matter

Straight up, no spin.

Feed-in tariffs

What the grid pays for your exported power has fallen to a few cents — so self-consumption and storage beat exporting cheap.
