The New Solar Battery Rebate is Confirmed – Here’s What You Need to Know.

The energy efficiency world just got a serious upgrade and households are set to benefit in a big way. The Australian Government’s Cheaper Home Batteries Program is officially confirmed from 1 July, making home energy storage more accessible than ever. 

We’re here to walk you through the key details and our recommended solar batteries:

What Is the Cheaper Home Batteries Program?

This program provides eligible households with around 30% off the cost of a solar battery, putting energy independence and lower power bills within close reach. The program is intended to help the transition to cleaner energy by making storage more affordable for more people.
