The scheme is designed to help reduce energy costs for regional communities, increase renewable energy generation, and support the transition to a low-carbon economy.
Under the RETS, eligible households and businesses can receive a Rebate towards the cost of installing a Solar PV system. The Rebate amount is determined based on the size of the system installed and the location of the property. In addition to the Rebate, participants may also be eligible for other incentives, such as feed-in tariffs for excess energy generated by their Solar panels.
By investing in renewable energy generation, the RETS aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve energy security, and create economic opportunities for regional communities. The scheme is part of the South Australian government’s broader efforts to support clean energy technology and address climate change.
Overall, the RETS is an important initiative that is helping South Australia transition to a more sustainable and resilient energy system. It provides valuable support to regional households and businesses, enabling them to take advantage of the benefits of Solar power and contribute to a cleaner, greener future.
