Some common Solar rebates and incentives available in Australia include:
1. Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs): Under the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme, homeowners and businesses that install eligible Solar PV systems can receive STCs, which can be sold or traded to offset the upfront cost of the system.
2. Feed-in tariffs: Many states and territories in Australia offer feed-in tariffs, where households and businesses are paid for the excess electricity generated by their Solar PV systems that is fed back into the grid.
3. Solar Homes Program: Some states, such as Victoria, offer rebates and interest-free loans for eligible households to install Solar PV systems.
4. Solar for Low Income Households Program: This program provides rebates for low-income households in South Australia to install Solar PV systems.
5. Solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA): Some companies offer Solar PPAs, where homeowners can have a Solar PV system installed at no upfront cost and pay for the electricity generated at a discounted rate.
6. Solar battery rebates: Some states, such as Victoria, offer rebates for households that install eligible Solar battery systems to store excess Solar energy for use later.
It is important to research and compare different rebates and incentives to find the best option for your specific circumstances. Additionally, it is recommended to consult with a reputable Solar installer to help navigate the process of applying for rebates and incentives.
