Residential Solar Rebates

What rebates are available?
  1. Two types of rebates are available: the federal Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) program, which includes Battery STCs under the Cheaper Home Batteries Program, and the Solar Victoria Solar panel (PV) rebate/loan program.
  2. All installations under 1MW are eligible for STCs, regardless of whether you’ve previously accessed a STC rebate. The Solar Victoria Rebate and Loan program has eligibility requirements (see below).
Eligibility requirement: STCs & BSTCs
  1. The STC and Battery STC (BSTC) rebate is not means-tested and is accessible by everyone. However, the solar PV system or battery you purchase in order to receive STCs must adhere to the Clean Energy Council (CEC) design and install guidelines, only use panels, inverters, and batteries that on the CEC approved list, comply with the relevant standards (like AS 4777), and be installed by a SAA accredited installer.
  2. The difference with the Battery STC rebate is that you can only access it once. The federal battery discount steps down on 1 January 2027, and it’s based on the date your battery is installed, not when you sign up. If a battery is on your list, sign up as soon as possible so we can book your installation. Since 1 May 2026, the discount tapers for larger batteries (full rate up to 14 kWh, then less above that), so we’ll help you pick the right size rather than the biggest.
  3. Green Sky Solar is a Solar Victoria authorised retailer; all our installers are SAA accredited, and we use only quality, CEC-approved panels, inverters, and batteries.
Eligibility Requirement: Solar panel (PV) Rebate/loan program

You are eligible to receive a rebate for installing a solar PV system if you meet the following criteria:

  1. You are the owner-occupier of an existing property or the owner of a home under construction where the system is to be installed;
  2. The combined household taxable income of all owners is less than $150,000 per year (this changed from $210,000 on 1 July 2026);
  3. The property is valued at under $3 million, or a home under construction that will be valued at under $3 million at the time of completion;
  4. The property address has not previously received a solar panel (PV) or solar battery rebate under the Solar Homes Program;
  5. The property has not had a solar panel (PV) system installed in the last ten years.

Eligible households can get a Solar Victoria rebate of up to $1,400 off a solar panel (PV) system, plus the option of an interest-free loan to match the rebate, paid back monthly over 4 years. For full details, see Solar Victoria’s solar panel (PV) rebate page.

If the Solar Victoria loan doesn’t cover everything, we recommend Parker Lane, a finance broker who can help you spread the rest of the cost.

Solar Victoria’s solar panel rebate and loan are ending, and solar panel support will move to the Victorian Energy Upgrades program from 1 July 2027. If you’ve been thinking about solar, sign up as soon as possible.

How do I apply for a rebate?
  1. As part of our service, we take care of the paperwork relating to the STCs and BSTCs. All you will need to do is assign over the STCs to us, which we will explain how upon completion of the installation.
  2. With Solar Victoria, we will create a quote for you with the agreed rebate. Once you accept our quote, we will upload it into the Solar Victoria portal, and send you an email with the steps for you to follow. You can read more about the application process here.
