Find rebates and incentives to help upgrade your home.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

NSW households, through a provider accredited under the scheme.

WORTH KNOWING

A specific dollar range for this circulates in search results and is not on any government page. If an installer quotes you a fixed rebate figure, ask them to show you where it comes from.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Homeowners in New South Wales.

WORTH KNOWING

Ask the assessor for the total cost and whether travel or a later certificate revision costs extra, because the discount applies to the assessment rather than to whatever you decide to upgrade afterwards.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Australian citizens or permanent residents with a combined annual taxable household income of up to $210,000.

WORTH KNOWING

It is a loan rather than a rebate, so it lowers the upfront cost and not the total cost.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

NSW households, through a participating installer.

WORTH KNOWING

The figure moves with the size and efficiency of the unit, so treat these as the top of the range rather than what you will get.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

From 1 July 2026, batteries from 2 kWh up to 50 kWh. Batteries installed with the NSW battery discount are all eligible.

WORTH KNOWING

It stacks with the federal battery discount, so ask your installer to show both on the quote.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Owners corporations and strata managing agents apply, not individual residents.

WORTH KNOWING

Applications close at 5pm on 4 December 2026, or earlier if the funds are fully allocated.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Households installing a battery between 5 kWh and 100 kWh with new or existing solar. No income test. Support is paid on the first 50 kWh of usable capacity.

WORTH KNOWING

The rate steps down every six months until the program ends in 2030, so the same battery is worth less later in the year than earlier.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Households anywhere in Australia installing an eligible system through an accredited installer.

WORTH KNOWING

It is almost always already inside the price you are quoted rather than something you claim afterwards. Ask for it to be shown as a separate line so you can see what it is worth.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Combined household taxable income of all owners under $150,000 a year, property value under $3 million. Also available for homes under construction and for rental properties.

WORTH KNOWING

The income cap dropped from $210,000 to $150,000 on 1 July 2026, so a household that was eligible last year may not be now.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Owner-occupiers, with combined household taxable income under $150,000 and property value under $3 million.

WORTH KNOWING

Figures in circulation of around $3,500 for heat pump hot water are wrong. With the Victorian Energy Upgrades discount on the same job, the two together reach up to $1,960 replacing a gas system, or up to $2,030 replacing an electric one.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Renters must have a combined household taxable income under $150,000 and the property must be worth under $3 million. You and your renters both sign an agreement.

WORTH KNOWING

If you rent, you cannot apply for this yourself, but it is worth sending to whoever owns the property.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

For apartments, units and townhouses that share a building. Other eligibility conditions apply; Solar Victoria lists them.

WORTH KNOWING

It runs until 30 June 2027 or until the rebates are exhausted, whichever comes first.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Victorian households and rental providers, through a provider accredited under the program.

WORTH KNOWING

There is no per-customer allocation and no quarterly cycle. Certificate values drift, they are not reserved for you, and anyone telling you to hurry because your allocation expires is inventing it.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Victorian households, through an accredited provider.

WORTH KNOWING

Be realistic about this one. A typical house has 20 to 30 square metres of glazing, so the discount is a few hundred dollars against a job costing many thousands. Decide on comfort, noise and staging rather than on the discount.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Households installing a battery between 5 kWh and 100 kWh with new or existing solar. No income test. Support is paid on the first 50 kWh of usable capacity.

WORTH KNOWING

The rate steps down every six months until the program ends in 2030, so the same battery is worth less later in the year than earlier.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Households anywhere in Australia installing an eligible system through an accredited installer.

WORTH KNOWING

It is almost always already inside the price you are quoted rather than something you claim afterwards. Ask for it to be shown as a separate line so you can see what it is worth.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Individually owned Class 1a dwellings with a current tenancy, rented at $1,000 a week or less, with no existing solar.

WORTH KNOWING

If you rent your home, you cannot apply for this yourself. It is worth sending to your rental provider, because it is their application to make.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Households installing a battery between 5 kWh and 100 kWh with new or existing solar. No income test. Support is paid on the first 50 kWh of usable capacity.

WORTH KNOWING

The rate steps down every six months until the program ends in 2030, so the same battery is worth less later in the year than earlier.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

South Australian households, through participating energy retailers.

WORTH KNOWING

This one is easy to miss because it does not look like a rebate. Ask your retailer what they currently offer before you pay full price for an upgrade.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Households installing a battery between 5 kWh and 100 kWh with new or existing solar. No income test. Support is paid on the first 50 kWh of usable capacity.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Western Australian households on Synergy or Horizon Power.

WORTH KNOWING

It runs until the allocated number of rebates is distributed rather than to a fixed date, so it can close without a deadline being announced.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Households installing a battery between 5 kWh and 100 kWh with new or existing solar. No income test. Support is paid on the first 50 kWh of usable capacity.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

Homeowners holding a Pensioner Concession Card, DVA Gold Card or Health Care Card, with an unimproved property value under $750,000 for a freestanding home, unit or dual occupancy, or under $300,000 for a unit titled multi-storey apartment.

WORTH KNOWING

It is the concession-card route, and it stacks with the Sustainable Household Scheme loan below rather than replacing it.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE

The $20,000 limit applies to new applicants from 1 July 2026. Households that have used the scheme before are capped at $15,000 over its life.

WORTH KNOWING

It is a loan at 3%, not an interest-free loan, and it is not a rebate. Double glazing is not on the eligible list. Ceiling insulation and EV charging are.

WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE
