Cheaper Home Batteries Program - Unlocking the Power of Solar with Federal Incentives
Do you want to maximise your solar energy system with the Cheaper Home Batteries Program? The federal government battery rebate provides a ~30% discount on the upfront cost of installing a small-scale battery system.
It’s easy to take advantage of the savings since the rebate is automatically applied when an accredited installer installs your solar battery. That means you don’t need to make any applications. Whether you’re installing a new solar system or want to add to your existing panels, you can get a discount with federal incentives. Both on-grid and off-grid systems can reap the rewards of the Cheaper Home Batteries Program with a range of 5-100 kWh nominal capacity and a discount of up to 50kWh usable capacity.
If you’re looking to lower your electricity bills and make the most of your solar system, government incentives like the Cheaper Home Batteries Program can help you achieve your green energy goals.

What are the Benefits of the Cheaper Home Battery Program in Australia?
We understand that going solar is a significant investment.
