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.
Western Australia runs its own Residential Battery Scheme on top of the federal discount — one of the few states with a true state-level battery rebate in 2026. Synergy customers can claim a state rebate that stacks with the federal 30% discount, while Horizon Power customers in regional WA can access even larger combined support.
