Tackle climate change and reduce your electricity bills in one go with solar power.
The Solar for Business Program is an initiative designed to support Victorian businesses to reduce their energy costs by accessing the benefits of renewable energy.
This initiative will bring down energy bills for eligible businesses by reducing the upfront cost of the installation of an approved small-scale solar PV system up to 30kW inverter capacity. To support the economic recovery of Victorian businesses and the broader solar sector.
Am I eligible?
To do a quick check if you’re eligible for government rebates on solar PV systems, use the information below. If you’re still unsure, complete the form below and our team can help you out.
Who can apply?
All entity types, including charities and not-for-profit organisations, are eligible for the Solar for business rebates providing they meet the following eligibility criteria:
- Be the owner of a business that employs at least one person, not including the business owner, and less than 50 full-time equivalent (FTE) employees
- Operate from premises that are non-residential.
- Operate from premises that are individually metered
- Have not previously received a Solar for Business rebate
- Have your system installed by a Solar Victoria approved solar retailer as detailed on Solar Victoria’s website
- Install a solar system with an inverter capacity size up to 30kW, and detailed on the Solar Victoria approved product list
Businesses who own their premises and those who rent can apply for the Solar for Business rebate. A rental provider/landlord of the business premises cannot apply for the rebate on a business’ behalf.
What does the rebate cover?
Rebates cover up to 50 per cent of the cost of a rooftop solar system with businesses eligible for a maximum rebate of $3,500 to reduce the upfront cost of installing solar on their business premises, plus the option of an interest-free loan.
This means the total rebate amount will be capped at 50% or $3,500 of the cost on any approved system. For example, if the net costs of solar are $10,000, then the rebate value applied is $3,500 (not $5,000) or if the net costs are $4,000, then the rebate value applied is $2,000 (not $3,500).
Solar for business rebates will remain at $3,500 until all 5,000 forecasted rebates have been fully allocated. Once the current amount of rebates are allocated the maximum rebate amount will be $1,750.
Net costs are inclusive of GST and any contribution from Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs).
