New Battery Incentives for NSW Residents are available Now

Register your interest to be one of the first to redeem

The new battery incentives from the NSW Government are available now.

The new home battery incentive program is offering significant savings for residents and businesses.

Eligible participants can receive between $1,600 and $2,400 off the upfront installation cost of a household battery for homes and businesses with existing solar systems. Additionally, there’s an extra incentive of $250 to $400 for connecting a battery to a Virtual Power Plant (VPP), which can be claimed a second time after three years.

Maximise Solar Energy with Peak Demand Reduction Scheme (PDRS) Incentives

Homes and businesses with rooftop solar will soon benefit from the Peak Demand Reduction Scheme (PDRS) incentives, promoting the installation of residential battery storage. These incentives will help maximise the use of solar energy and significantly reduce electricity bills.

 

Benefits of Installing Batteries in NSW

Adding solar battery storage to your solar power system allows you to store your unused energy so you can use it when you need it (at night, on low-sunlight days, when utility rates are more expensive or during blackouts). 

The NSW government has outlined the following benefits from installing more batteries across NSW:

  • Enhanced Grid Reliability: More batteries across NSW will make the grid more reliable and stable.
  • Reduced Fossil Fuel Reliance: Helps reduce reliance on fossil fuels during peak demand periods.
  • Environmental Impact: Contributes to reducing NSW’s emissions by 70% by 2035 and achieving net zero by 2050.
 

 

NSW Government Battery Incentive Details

If you’re eligible, you could access incentives such as:

  • Upfront Installation Cost Savings: Between $1600 to $2400 off the upfront installation costs of a battery for homes and businesses with existing solar, depending on battery size.
  • VPP Connection Incentive: Between $250 to $400 for connecting your household or business battery to a Virtual Power Plant (VPP). This incentive is available twice, with a minimum of 3 years apart.

 

For homes and businesses without solar, the incentive can be included in a quote for a new solar and battery system installation.
