💡 Big News: A New Federal Rebate Is Making Home Batteries More Affordable Than Ever!

If you’ve been thinking about adding a battery to your solar system, there’s never been a better time to take the next step. Starting July 2025, the Australian Government is launching a new federal battery rebate designed to help households and businesses save on the upfront cost of solar battery systems.

This initiative is part of the government’s “Cheaper Home Batteries Program,” and it’s a game-changer for energy independence and long-term savings.

⚡ What Is the New Battery Rebate?

The rebate supports the installation of solar battery systems ranging from 5 kWh up to 100 kWh (nominal capacity). The rebate amount will depend on the usable capacity of the battery and applies to eligible systems installed from 1 July 2025 onward.

While the rebate doesn’t cover the full cost of a battery, it significantly reduces the initial investment — making it easier to enjoy:

  • Lower energy bills

  • Greater energy independence

  • Protection against blackouts

  • Smarter use of your solar energy (especially in the evening)

✅ Who Is Eligible?

The rebate is designed for:

  • Homeowners with existing or new solar PV systems

  • Small businesses

  • Community facilities

To qualify:

  • Your battery must be on the Clean Energy Council’s approved list

  • Installation must be done by an accredited installer

  • The rebate applies to one system per property

No income testing applies — so it’s open to a wide range of Australian households.

⏳ Why Act Now?

This rebate is available from July 2025, but the value will reduce each year until 2030. That means the sooner you install, the more you can potentially save.

Plus, if you live in a state with additional local battery incentives or rebates, this federal program may be able to stack with those benefits, amplifying your return on investment.
