Federal battery estimate only, based on published rules checked 20 October 2026. Installation and certification determine the applicable period. Estimates use tiered usable capacity and round down to whole STCs. The first 14 kWh receives 100% of the factor, the next 14 kWh 60%, and capacity above 28 kWh up to 50 kWh 15%. Eligibility and quote terms apply.

BEFORE INSTALLATIONConfirm the scope and timing
Your solar has a day job.
Give it an evening shift.
A battery lets you keep some of your surplus solar for later. Here’s where it can make a difference in everyday life.
Generate it.
Store the surplus.
Your solar can power your home during the day. A compatible battery can charge from energy you don’t use immediately.
Make more use of your solarBring daytime energy
into your evening.
Use stored energy after sunset, helping reduce the electricity you need to buy from the grid while charge is available.
Use stored energy laterPlan for the essentials.
Ask about backup for selected circuits. Blackout operation requires suitable equipment and installation design; it is not included with every battery.
Discuss backup in your quoteYOUR HOME SETS THE NUMBERS
Savings depend on your solar output, usage, tariff, system losses and battery operation. A battery does not guarantee a zero electricity bill.
Four locations.
Your local options, explained.
Federal battery support is available across NSW, VIC, QLD and ACT for eligible systems. State and territory programs offer different extras.
AUSTRALIA-WIDE
One federal battery program. Separate local support.
The calculator above estimates federal battery STCs only. State incentives and loans are not included in its dollar figures.
NSWVPP INCENTIVE + FINANCE
New South Wales
More ways to support your upgrade.
An eligible battery can receive an incentive for joining a virtual power plant (VPP). The amount depends on usable capacity, provider and contract. Batteries up to 50 kWh may qualify.
Zero-interest loan: up to $15,000
Home Energy Saver can finance eligible upgrades, including batteries. Property ownership, residency, income and lender criteria apply. This is repayable finance.
VICFEDERAL BATTERY SUPPORT
Victoria
Battery support. Solar options too.
Eligible battery installations can access the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program. Solar Victoria’s state battery loan program is closed to new applications.
Adding solar? Up to $1,400 for panels
Eligible households may access the Solar Homes solar panel rebate, with an optional matching interest-free loan. This is for solar panels, not a battery rebate.
QLDFEDERAL BATTERY SUPPORT
Queensland
Start with your federal estimate.
Eligible Queensland battery installations can access the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program. Use our STC calculator to compare installation periods.
Battery Booster is closed
Queensland’s former Battery Booster program is no longer accepting applications. Its historical rebate is not included in our estimates.
ACTLOW-INTEREST FINANCE
Australian Capital Territory
Spread the cost of eligible upgrades.
The Sustainable Household Scheme offers eligible new applicants loans from $2,000 to $20,000, including for household batteries, at 3% interest over up to 10 years.
A loan, separate from your battery discount

From the first conversation
to the way your system is installed.
Know what reduces the price.
And what you repay.
Ask for a quote that shows equipment, installation, eligible discounts and any finance separately.
Check the federal battery discount
Eligibility, usable capacity and installation timing affect your STCs. Use the calculator for an estimate, then confirm the discount in your quote.
Check your local program
NSW VPP participation has provider terms. VIC’s panel rebate is for solar. QLD’s Battery Booster is closed. ACT finance has scheme and lending criteria.
Confirm approval before you proceed
Loans must be repaid and are not extra rebate savings. Combining support depends on each program’s rules and approved providers; availability through Electrifying Australia must be confirmed.
Good questions.
Straight answers.
Understand the details before making a decision.
Is the battery rebate ending on 1 January 2027?
No. The published battery STC factor reduces from 6.8 to 5.7 for January–June 2027, then to 5.2 for July–December 2027. Support continues under the program, subject to eligibility.
Does booking in 2026 secure the 2026 rate?
No. The battery’s installation and certification date determines the applicable factor. A quote, deposit or booking date is not enough. We’ll discuss availability and requirements before confirming a schedule.
Why does a larger battery receive a different rate?
The factor applies in tiers: 100% for the first 14 kWh of usable capacity, 60% for the portion above 14 up to 28 kWh, and 15% for the portion above 28 up to 50 kWh. The calculator applies these tiers before rounding down.
Can I add a battery to my existing solar?
Eligible batteries can be connected to new or existing solar. Compatibility, approved equipment, installation standards and other program conditions must be checked for your property. Tell us about your current inverter and solar setup.
Is the calculator amount my final rebate?
No. It automatically calculates certificates from your usable battery capacity and selected installation month, then applies the $40/STC government clearing-house benchmark (excluding GST). Your actual discount depends on eligibility, equipment, certification, certificate prices, fees and quote terms. This is a federal battery estimate; state incentives and solar panel STCs are not included.
Can you guarantee a 2026 installation?
Availability must be confirmed after assessment. Equipment, site requirements and approvals can affect timing. Enquire early so the team can advise you on realistic dates.
