Understanding Solar Rebates in NSW
Save Thousands with Solar Rebates for Your Home
Switching to solar has never been more affordable. With generous government rebates and feed-in tariffs, you can cut the upfront cost of installing solar panels and start saving on your power bills from day one.
How Solar Rebates Work
When you install solar at your home, you may be eligible for significant rebates and incentives:
1. Federal Government Rebate (STCs)
The Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) rewards households for going solar.
You receive Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) based on your system size, location, and installation year.
STCs are traded like credits and are usually claimed upfront, meaning you get a discount off the total system price. For example, a 6.6kW system in Sydney could save you around $3,000–$3,500 instantly.
2. State-Based Rebates
On top of the federal rebate, New South Wales offers special programs for eligible low-income households.
3. Feed-in Tariffs
Once your system is installed, any extra power you generate can be sold back to the grid. Energy retailers pay 5c–15c per kWh, reducing your bills even further.
Why Act Now?
Rebates reduce each year until 2030, so the sooner you install, the more you save. Only Clean Energy Council (CEC) accredited installers and products qualify – so choosing a trusted provider is key. Rebates and FiTs combined mean your system can pay for itself in just a few years.
