Some common types of Solar rebates and incentives that may be available include:
1. Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs): These are tradable certificates that can be created when a Solar PV system is installed. The number of STCs that can be created is based on factors such as the size of the system and location. STCs can then be sold to offset the upfront cost of the system.
2. Feed-in Tariffs: Some states and territories offer feed-in tariffs for surplus electricity generated by a Solar PV system that is fed back into the grid. This can provide an ongoing financial benefit to Solar system owners.
3. Solar panel rebates: Some states and territories offer rebates or financial incentives for the purchase and installation of Solar panels. These rebates can help reduce the upfront cost of installing a Solar PV system.
4. Low-interest loans: Some states and territories offer low-interest loans or other financial assistance programs to help homeowners finance the purchase and installation of Solar PV systems.
5. Energy efficiency incentives: In addition to Solar rebates, some states and territories offer incentives for other energy efficiency measures, such as installing energy-efficient appliances or improving insulation. These incentives can help homeowners reduce their overall energy usage and costs.
It’s important to research and understand the specific rebates and incentives that may be available in your area, as well as any eligibility criteria or application processes that may apply. Working with a reputable Solar installer can also help ensure that you are taking advantage of all available rebates and incentives when installing a Solar PV system.
