Some common types of Solar rebates and incentives in Australia include:
1. Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs): Under the federal government’s Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme, homeowners and businesses installing Solar panels are eligible to receive STCs, which can be traded for a discount on the upfront cost of the Solar system.
2. Feed-in tariffs: Many states and territories offer feed-in tariffs, which allow Solar system owners to earn money by feeding excess electricity generated by their Solar panels back into the grid.
3. State-based rebates: Some states and territories offer additional rebates or incentives for installing Solar panels, such as the Solar Homes program in Victoria or the Solar for Rentals trial in New South Wales.
4. Interest-free loans: Some states and territories offer interest-free loans to help homeowners and businesses finance the upfront cost of installing a Solar system.
It is important to research and understand the available rebates and incentives in your area to maximize the financial benefits of installing Solar panels.
