To be eligible for the Solar for Low Income Households Program, households must meet certain criteria including:
– Having a valid Pensioner Concession Card or Department of Veterans’ Affairs Gold Card
– Having a household income below a certain threshold
– Owning their home or having permission from the landlord to install Solar panels
– Using an accredited Solar installer
The program aims to reduce electricity bills for low-income households, increase the uptake of renewable energy, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. By providing rebates for Solar installations, the program helps to make Solar power more accessible and affordable for those who may not otherwise be able to afford it.
Households interested in applying for the Solar for Low Income Households Program can find more information on the NSW government website or contact their local government office for assistance.
