Solar Panel Rebate
The Solar Panel Rebate entitles Victorian households to receive a rebate of $1,400 when a solar PV system is installed. This is on top of the Federal Government Rebate (Small- scale Technology Certificates (STC)) that was already in place. Being able to claim both subsidies will mean that you can save approximately one-third of the overall costs of a solar system.

Home Battery Subsidies
Rebates will be available for up to half the value (capped at $4,838) of the installation of a battery storage unit for 10,000 households that already have solar panels installed. Eligible homeowners will be able to save up to $4,838 on this installation. This will save households with an average 11kWh battery around $650 a year on their electricity bills, in addition to savings they are already making with solar panels.
