Helping Queensland landlords save upfront — and helping tenants save every day.
The Queensland Government’s Supercharged Solar for Renters program is now open, offering eligible landlords a rebate of up to $3,500 to install rooftop solar on rental properties. This initiative helps landlords reduce upfront installation costs while delivering meaningful electricity savings to tenants.
At Solargain, we help landlords take full advantage of this new incentive — ensuring maximum rebate eligibility, seamless installation, and the strongest return on investment.
Why Landlords Are Acting Now

✔ Attract High‑Quality, Long‑Term Tenants
Properties with solar instantly stand out. Renters save an estimated $700 per year on electricity, making solar-equipped homes more desirable in today’s cost‑of‑living environment.
✔ Increase Property Value & Rental Appeal
A solar upgrade boosts the appeal and energy performance of your investment property, offering a clear point of difference in a competitive rental market.
What Tenants Gain
Tenants enjoy immediate bill reduction thanks to lower daytime energy costs and increased solar self‑consumption. The program is expected to benefit around 6,500 Queensland households, with typical savings of around $700 per year, depending on usage and system size. They also gain access to the government’s free Solar for Rentals Calculator, helping estimate real‑world savings before installation.
