Solar Rebates

Solar rebates help to reduce the upfront costs of installing a solar power system in Townsville. The discount ranges from $1500 to $4000 for residential solar system and up to $36 000 for 100kw commercial solar systems installed in Townsville and regional areas of North Queensland

The term used for the Solar Rebate is the STC or Small Scale Technology Certificates. Each certificate equals one megawatt of electricity displaced over 15 years. The number of certificates and value is set by the government based on size system installed and what location each system is installed.

Currently in 2024 the value of this rebate is:

5kw Solar System - Rebate $1900

8kw Solar System - Rebate $2800

10kw Solar System - Rebate $3800

13kw Solar System - Rebate $4800

Depending of what size you need, how much power you are using and available roof space option for the larger system will not only save you more but you will make the most of the upfront Solar Rebate.
