Unlock the Benefits of the NSW Solar Battery Rebate with NSW Country Solar
NSW Battery Rebate
The NSW Battery Rebate started on November 1, 2024 and is making it more affordable for homeowners and small businesses to invest in solar battery systems. At NSW Country Solar, we’re here to help you take advantage of these generous discounts, so you can lower your electricity bills and enjoy reliable, sustainable energy.
Contact NSW Country Solar to inspect and service your solar system. You can call us on (02) 6845 1519. In addition to Wellington, we offer our services in Dubbo, Orange, Bathurst, Mudgee, Parkes, Cobar, Bourke, Lightning Ridge and surrounding regions.
What Is the NSW Solar Battery Incentive?
The NSW Solar Battery Incentive is part of the Peak Demand Reduction Scheme (PDRS), aimed at reducing electricity demand during peak periods. This program provides upfront discounts and ongoing incentives to encourage the installation of solar batteries and participation in Virtual Power Plants (VPPs). It’s designed to make solar storage systems more accessible and affordable for homes and businesses across NSW.
By supporting local businesses like ours, you’re also contributing in the growth and development of our community.
Eligible customers can access:
- $1,600 to $2,400 upfront discount on the installation of a new battery, depending on its size (2 kWh to 28 kWh capacity).
- $250 to $400 incentive for connecting to a VPP, available twice (with a minimum of three years between claims).
For those installing a new solar system with a battery, the incentive is applied directly to your quote, reducing the overall cost.
Eligibility for the NSW Solar Battery Incentive
To qualify for the incentive, you must:
- Have Solar or Install New Solar: Your property must have a solar system, or one must be installed alongside the battery.
- Battery Size: Install a battery with a usable capacity between 2 kWh and 28 kWh.
- Work with Approved Installers: The system must be installed by an Accredited Certificate Provider (ACP) under the PDRS.
Already have a battery? While you’re not eligible for a new system discount, you may qualify for the VPP connection incentive, helping you make the most of your existing system.

What are the key reasons a battery can benefit me when I get solar?
Here are six great reasons to add a battery to your solar system
- Reliable Power Supply During Outages
Power outages can disrupt daily life, especially in areas like Cobar, Bourke, and Lightning Ridge, where extreme weather can impact the grid. A solar battery ensures your essential appliances keep running, even when the power goes out. - Maximising Solar Savings
Adding a battery to your solar system allows you to store excess energy generated during the day for use at night. In towns like Orange and Bathurst, where energy prices can be high, this means greater savings on your electricity bills. - Energy Independence
Many homeowners in regional areas like Mudgee, Parkes, and Wellington value the ability to rely less on the grid. A solar battery gives you more control over your energy use and reduces your dependence on power companies. - Optimal Use of Solar Power
With a battery, you can store surplus energy during sunny days and use it later when sunlight is limited, such as during cloudy periods or in winter months in Dubbo or Bathurst. This maximises the efficiency of your solar system. - Reducing Peak Energy Costs
Energy companies often charge higher rates during peak times. In towns like Bourke and Parkes, using stored solar energy from a battery during these times can significantly cut your energy expenses. - Boosting Property Value
Homes with solar and battery systems are increasingly sought after in communities like Lightning Ridge, Mudgee, and Orange. Adding a battery not only improves your energy setup but also makes your property more attractive to potential buyers.
If you’re in any of these towns and looking to enhance your solar setup, consider adding a battery for increased savings and peace of mind. Our team is ready to assist , and we are only a call away
