Finding out accurate and current information on solar power rebates in Australia can be tricky. There are two reasons for this — one, solar power installers prefer to get your details first then clarify rebates afterwards. This is a competitive industry, with many solar installation companies competing for your business; sadly, many are becoming quite foggy when it comes to being upfront about rebate amounts.

Secondly, finding information can be tricky because the rules change an awful lot, at the drop of a hat. New South Wales’ rebate schemes were axed overnight, and in recent memory we saw how the botched insulation rebate scheme turned an industry on its head almost instantly.

We recommend checking in with Energy Matters who have comprehensive information on rebates and solar credits. We also recommend the Alternative Technology Association’s Victorian solar power rebate information at http://www.ata.org.au/rebates/vic-rebates/.
