Unlock Energy Savings with the Cheaper Home Batteries Program

Starting July 1, 2025, Australian households and small businesses will have the opportunity to reduce energy bills and improve energy security through the Federal Government’s Cheaper Home Batteries Program. This $2.3 billion initiative is designed to make home battery storage more affordable—helping you store and use more of your own solar power.

What is the Cheaper Home Batteries Program?

The program provides rebates of up to $372 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) of usable battery capacity. After administrative costs, this equals around $330 per kWh, which means you could save approximately $3,300 on a 10kWh battery system.

It’s open to a wide range of Australians, including:

Homeowners and renters (with landlord permission)
Small businesses
Community organisations

Whether you already have a solar system or are just getting started, this rebate helps make battery storage more accessible and cost-effective.

Key Benefits

✅ Up to $3,300 rebate for a 10kWh battery
✅ Combine with existing state rebates for even greater savings
✅ Open to most households and small businesses
✅ Add to existing battery systems if expanding
✅ Gain more energy independence and reduce power bills
✅ Increase resilience during blackouts
