What is Federal Solar Rebate?
Australia is moving towards clean energy. This solar rebate is known as ‘Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme’ or SRES. It’s a federal initiative to reduce the upfront cost of solar installations for Australian big and small businesses. This means going solar has become affordable. EcoGreen Australia helps you in every step of this process to secure your maximum benefit for your commercial needs.
- Value of STCs depends on system size, location, and year of installation.
- Accredited installers handle the rebate paperwork and get the maximum discount for your business.
- Scheme is phasing out by 2030, with STC value decreasing annually.
- Upgrades supported include solar panels, batteries, water heaters, and heat pumps.
How is Your Rebate Calculated?
Don’t buy solar panels for your commercial needs without knowing the solar panel rebate and solar battery rebate! When you invest in a solar panel system, you can claim the government rebate or the solar discount on it. Hence, your commercial solar energy needs become more affordable. However, there’s more to this discount. It’s a carefully calculated figure that blends your system’s potential output, your business location under the intense Australian sun, and the length of time your system will be recognised under the national renewable scheme.
- It is customized to system size and location for accurate financial incentives.
- You get an instant discount on the purchase. Hence, it negates delays.
- Supports a wide range of small-scale renewable technologies such as solar PV panels, solar batteries, solar water heaters, wind, and hydro systems.
- It is administered by the Clean Energy Regulator, hence, it maintains standards.
Know The Decline
If your business or home is in Victoria or Queensland and considering a solar panel rebate or a solar battery rebate, you must know the deeming period. You must secure your rebate now, as you can get the largest possible rebate before the incentive gradually phases out. Waiting even one year will mean fewer STCs and a smaller government discount on your installation.
Rebates For Commercial Solar
Australia’s commercial solar sector is making businesses cleaner, greener and reducing their carbon footprint. With ongoing federal rebates, grants, and financial incentives, clean energy has become more cost-effective than ever for businesses. Earlier, high upfront costs were the reason why many companies, especially small to mid-sized enterprises, avoided this upgrade. However, it has become affordable now.
- STCs provide major discounts for systems under 100kW.
- Large-scale Generation Certificates or LGCs benefit commercial installations over 100kW.
- Achieve payback in 3-6 years for commercial solar systems, hence, long-term savings for businesses.
- Rebates lower upfront costs and make solar accessible for small and large businesses.

Federal Battery Rebates
The best part of the commercial solar 2025 updates is the introduction of lucrative federal battery rebates. If your solar battery systems are within the capacity range of 5 kWh to 100 kWh, they are eligible for these rebates. You can access a 30% upfront rebate capped at 50 kWh of storage. This initiative will reduce the cost barrier for energy storage; hence, your business can store surplus solar power for use during peak hours or outages. It will increase energy independence for businesses.
- Eligible battery sizes are 5 kWh to 100 kWh (rebate applies only to first 50 kWh).
- Applies to businesses, and community facilities connected to solar systems.
- Rebate lowers investment barrier for energy storage and boosting energy independence.
Feed-in Tariffs Are Declining Each Year
If your installations have battery storage and every excess energy stored can bring you money. Feed-in tariffs or FiTs are payments for your surplus solar electricity exported back to the grid. But if you do not have battery storage, you can claim solar battery rebate now and upgrade your systems. However, just remember that it is declining over recent years in most regions, including commercial rates in Victoria and Queensland. Since these rebate values will decrease until the SRES concludes in 2030, every year you delay this, it will reduce your savings drastically. Installing solar now means the highest rebate values.
- Typical FiT rates are now between 3c-7c/kWh, much lower than in previous years.
- Rebate values under the SRES also fall annually, set to end by 2030.
- Installing and upgrading solar means securing the highest available rebates.
