At Revolutionary Solar, we’re committed to helping Australian households unlock the full potential of solar energy, not just through powerful solar panels, but by pairing them with smart battery storage.
A key part of making that transition more affordable is the Australian Government’s Battery Rebate, officially known as the Cheaper Home Batteries Program.
The Government Battery Rebate is a federal initiative designed to make home battery systems more affordable for Australian households, small businesses, and community organizations.
Officially launched on 1 July 2025, it provides a discount on the upfront cost of installing an eligible home battery, typically around 30% off the total installed price. This rebate is applied directly at the point of sale through your installer, so you benefit immediately without having to apply yourself.
This scheme is delivered through the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) the same framework that previously supported solar panel rebates, and is open until 1 May 2026.
Eligible battery systems (5 kWh – 100 kWh nominal capacity) receive a discount on the upfront cost based on their usable capacity. The way it’s structured means:
You get savings on the first 50 kWh of usable battery capacity.
The rebate is typically applied through Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs), which installers trade to reduce your purchase price at checkout.
While the exact rebate value can vary as market prices for STCs shift, the program aims to deliver roughly 30% off the upfront cost of a home battery system.
*Your exact savings will depend on the system you choose and market conditions at the time of installation.
The good news? You don’t need to navigate complex government paperwork.
When you choose Revolutionary Solar to design and install your battery system, we’ll handle the rebate process for you. This means:
It’s seamless, transparent, and built into our trusted installation process.
Big electricity bills shouldn’t be normal. They should be optional.
Whether you are looking for a budget-friendly starter package or a premium battery-ready system, we’re ready to help you own your power.
