Battery rebate by state and territory
The federal battery rebate is the same everywhere in Australia: about $3,458 off a 13.5 kWh battery installed in May–Dec 2026. Some states add their own incentive or a loan on top. Pick yours to see what applies and what a battery is worth there.

On top of the federal rebate, NSW pays a one-off incentive for connecting your battery to a virtual power plant, and offers zero-interest loans to eligible households.
