The Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) is a federal government initiative that provides financial incentives for households and businesses to install Solar panels and other renewable energy systems. Under the SRES, eligible systems receive small-scale technology certificates (STCs) which can be sold to recoup some of the upfront costs of installation.
The Victorian Solar Homes Program is a state government initiative that provides rebates for eligible households to install Solar panels, Solar hot water systems, and Solar batteries. The program aims to make Solar power more affordable for Victorian households and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Both programs have specific eligibility criteria and requirements that need to be met in order to receive the rebates. It’s recommended to consult with a qualified Solar installer or energy provider to determine if you qualify for these programs.
