ffordable for households and businesses. The primary incentive is the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES), which provides Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) when you install an eligible solar system.

STCs act as an upfront discount on the cost of your solar installation. The number of certificates you receive depends on your system size, location, and the remaining years of the scheme (which is legislated to run until 2030). For a typical 6.6 kW system in Tasmania, STCs can reduce the upfront cost by a substantial amount.

Your solar installer will typically handle the STC process and apply the discount to your quote, so you see the reduced price at the point of sale.

In addition to STCs, interest-free loan programs and state-based initiatives may be available from time to time. It’s worth checking the Tasmanian Government’s energy website and the Clean Energy Regulator’s website for the most current information.

For battery storage, the situation is evolving. While there is no universal national battery rebate, various state and federal programs have been introduced over time. Check current offerings as these can change.

It’s important to act while incentives are available. The STC scheme reduces each year as it approaches its 2030 end date, meaning the rebate value decreases annually.
