Support Steps Down
The federal battery discount reduces on a set schedule. The amount you lock in today is the best it will ever be.
Tasmania pairs the nationwide federal discounts with its Energy Saver Loan Scheme — interest-free finance of up to $10,000 for solar panels, batteries and efficient appliances. With rising grid prices, Tasmanian households increasingly use solar-plus-storage to lock in energy independence.

What Tasmania households ask most about solar and battery rebates.
Most owner-occupiers in Tasmania with a suitable roof qualify for federal STC support, and homeowners, landlords and small businesses can claim the federal battery discount — there is no means test.

You never have to lodge paperwork yourself. Accredited installers apply all federal and state incentives directly to your quote, so the price you sign is the discounted price. Start with our free eligibility check and a local energy analyst will confirm which programs apply to your home.
Yes. Solar panels actually operate more efficiently in cooler temperatures, and modern panels perform well in diffuse light. A well-oriented Tasmanian system still offsets a large share of household consumption, especially when paired with a battery.
The interest-free loan of up to $10,000 can fund solar panels, home batteries, heat pumps and other efficiency upgrades — letting you install now and repay over time with no interest.
Eligible households can combine rebates with approved payment plans or interest-free loans so there is nothing to pay on installation day, and many start saving from the first bill. Availability depends on your eligibility check results and credit assessment.

Completely free and obligation-free. It takes about 30 seconds, and you'll only be contacted by an energy analyst if your home conditionally qualifies — there's no charge at any point for checking.
