Victorian Solar Rebate

Join more than 350,000 Victorians in taking control of their energy bills by making the switch to solar.   

If you’re a Victorian householder you may be eligible for a solar rebate and/or interest-free loan, thanks to the Victorian Government solar energy program. 


What is the Solar Homes Program?

The Solar Homes Program offers eligible Victorian households rebates and interest-free loans for installing solar panels, batteries, heat pumps or solar hot water systems, to help more Victorians save with solar. Eligible households can apply for a:

  • Solar Panel Rebate: A rebate of $1,400 to install solar panels
  • Hot Water Rebate: A rebate of $1,000 to install a heat pump or solar hot water system
  • Solar Battery Loan: An interest-free loan of up to $8,800 to install a solar battery
