What is the WA Battery Rebate? 

The Residential Battery Scheme aims to make solar batteries more affordable for WA families. It's set to be the most generous battery rebate in Australia and means you could have the battery you've always wanted, for a fraction of the cost. 

The $387 million package includes one-off rebates of up to $5000* for Synergy customers and up to $7500* for Horizon customers. There are also means-tested interest-free loans of up to $10,000* for low and middle-income households.  

The rebate allows for a minimum battery size of 5 kWh up to 10 kWh and includes new, additional and replacement solar batteries. The rebate will be applied at $500 per kilowatt hour (kWh).

To be eligible, batteries must meet Australian and local grid standards and can include existing recognised brands as well as locally manufactured batteries.

What solar rebates are available in WA? 

The solar rebates in Western Australia vary based on factors such as the size of the system you install and where you live. This impacts the number of STCs you’re eligible for (and therefore the total amount). Read this article how solar rebates work in WA to find out exactly how STCs are calculated. If you’re not up to speed on STCs then don’t worry – all STCs are handled by Plico and the credit is factored into your low weekly instalment.  All you have to do is, on the day of installation, sign your STCs over to the local installer and we will do everything else from there. 

In Australia, the government solar rebate is set to conclude by 2030, after which rebates will be unavailable.
