Answer six questions once — an accredited installer
in your postcode comes back with the numbers.
Sound familiar?
Power prices rise every year. A battery stores your cheap daytime solar and runs the house on it after dark, when rates peak.
Feed-in tariffs have collapsed. Stored at home, the same kilowatt is worth several times what the grid pays you.
Storms can leave regional homes dark for days. A battery keeps the fridge, lights and internet running.
And the government pays for part of it
Up to $6,354* in rebates across panels and battery
The battery rate steps down on 1 January — and it locks to your install date, not your quote.
How it works
See which programs apply to your address, then decide whether you want an installer to quote.
Homeowner status, power bill, existing solar and address. About sixty seconds — no account, nothing to install.
Which federal and state programs your address qualifies for, and what January's step-down changes.
Enter your details for the full figures and, only if you want it, a quote from one accredited installer matched to your address.
Any homeowner in an eligible postcode. The amount depends on your state, battery size and whether you add panels — that's what the check works out.
No. With panels, a battery lets you use your own power at night. Without them, the discount applies to both solar and battery.
The federal rebate steps down from 6.8 to 5.7 certificates per kWh on 1 January. It's locked to your installation date, and installs run four to ten weeks out — so a January install is worth roughly $400 less on a 10 kWh battery.
Payment plans vary by installer and state. Your matched installer will confirm what's available — we don't arrange finance ourselves.
You get your full breakdown by email, and one accredited installer matched to your address contacts you to prepare a quote. One company, not five. Your details go to that installer only, never onto the open market, and you can opt out at any point.
