No. 2 Cheaper Home Batteries Program
This is the Federal Government’s solar battery rebate program that involves all batteries up to 50KW commissioned activated after 01/07/2025. The initiative is part of a $2.3 billion expansion of the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme(SRES) which has created a real incentive for property owners to add a battery into their solar system strategy and receive a rebate concession equal to $350 per KW of Battery Storage.
Is there a way to obtain the benefits of solar without investing my cash or taking on Green Loans/Zero Interest Funding?
Yes, there is. The solar industry is assisting people who choose not to borrow, and don’t have access to cash/self-funded options to essentially lock in long-term affordable tariffs and supporting the grid and the environment at the same time. Ask us about how the National Renewables Network (NRN) can work for you and to verify if you qualify for such an installation of a solar and battery system at zero cost.
