Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs): These rebates are based on the number of renewable energy certificates generated by a solar system. The number of certificates depends on factors such as the system size, location, and the amount of electricity it’s expected to generate over its lifetime. These certificates can be traded or sold to electricity retailers, which helps offset the cost of installing solar panels.

STCs are a government incentive designed to encourage the installation of Solar panels and other renewable energy systems. The value of STCs can fluctuate based on market conditions, but they can provide significant savings for homeowners and businesses looking to go Solar.

To claim STCs, the Solar system must be installed by a Clean Energy Council-accredited installer and meet all relevant standards and regulations. The number of STCs you can claim will depend on the size of your system and its location, with more certificates available for systems in areas with higher Solar radiation.

Overall, STCs are a valuable financial incentive that can make Solar power more affordable for many Australians. By taking advantage of this Rebate program, you can reduce your upfront costs and start enjoying the benefits of clean, renewable energy sooner.
