Are you eligible for NSW’s new Battery Rebate Program?

Daniel Tonkin

Starting from November 1, 2024, NSW residents with rooftop solar systems will be eligible for significant incentives to install a home battery and connect it to a Virtual Power Plant (VPP).

In its efforts to reduce carbon emissions by 70% by 2035 (and achieve net zero by 2050), the NSW government announced that it would be offering up to $2,400 worth of rebates for residents installing a new solar battery on their home or business. Additionally, by connecting that battery to a VPP, you may also be able to get $250 to $400 twice, with a minimum interval of three years.

To be eligible to qualify, you’ll need:

  • An existing rooftop solar system.
  • An eligible battery (capacity between 2 and 28 kWh).
  • A new installation (upgrades of existing batteries are not included).
  • An accredited solar supplier.

Switching To Solar Energy Is Quicker And More Affordable Than Ever Before.

Homeowners in Australia are currently choosing to pay to have a solar system installed, instead of paying those ever-increasing energy bills. If you own your own home, it only makes sense to produce your own energy!
