Are you one of the many Australians feeling overwhelmed by choosing and installing a solar battery? You’re not alone.
As interest in solar batteries surges, especially with the upcoming federal government’s $2.3 billion Cheaper Home Batteries Program offering a 30% discount on installation, many homeowners are still hesitant.
Nearly one in three Australians feels overwhelmed by the process of selecting and installing a solar battery, even as interest increases ahead of a new national rebate scheme.
Recent surveys reveal key challenges:
- Complexity: Nearly one in three Australians finds the solar battery installation process too complex.
- Upfront Cost: Over half of Australians are deterred by the initial cost, despite falling prices and available low-interest financing options.
These insights, highlighted by the Commonwealth Bank and Brighte, underscore the need for clearer guidance in the home energy upgrade journey. Even with the new federal rebate allowing “stacking” incentives, navigating government solar battery rebates remains tricky. For instance, after July, only Western Australia will retain a state-level rebate, offering up to $7,500.
