From 1 July 2025, Australian homeowners will be able to access a brand new Federal Government initiative — the Cheaper Home Batteries Program. This is the first-ever national rebate specifically for solar battery systems, making it more affordable than ever to increase your home’s energy independence and reduce electricity bills.
What Is the Cheaper Home Batteries Program?
The Cheaper Home Batteries Program is designed to make solar battery storage more accessible. It offers a rebate of up to 30% off the cost of a home battery system, potentially saving households between $3,300 and $3,700 on a standard 10kWsolar battery installation.
Whether you’re adding a battery to your existing solar system or investing in one as part of a new installation, this rebate significantly reduces upfront costs.
