Significant reductions are nearing for home battery storage subsidies in both Victoria and South Australia.<\/p>\n

First to Victoria – on Monday there were less than 400 rebates remaining at the maximum current value of $4,174 according to Solar Victoria; the agency overseeing the state’s Solar Homes Program. A look this morning revealed there were just 281 left. After these are snapped up, the subsidy<\/a> will reduce to a maximum $3,500 – a $674 drop.<\/p>\n

Over the border in South Australia, the state’s Home Battery Scheme<\/a> subsidy currently offers up to a maximum of $3,000 (Step 3 phase). Once those are gone, then Step 4 phase kicks in offering up to a $2,000 maximum.<\/p>\n

As for how uptake has been looking in SA, in late July there were around 1,500 subsidies at the step 3 level still available. Around this time last month<\/a>, there were 770 left. As at last Thursday, there were fewer than 350 subsidies still up for grabs. So, it’s looking like there may only be a week or two left for the more generous incentive.<\/p>\n

—-
\nUPDATE September 27:<\/strong> It turned out to be less than that – last Friday (September 24), the SA Home Battery Scheme subsidy reduced from a maximum subsidy of $3,000 to $2,000.

Both reductions are significant, but before you skedaddle with view to grabbing a subsidy while they’re hot …<\/p>\n

Solar Batteries – Do Your Research<\/h2>\n

While the pressure may now really be on to score a more generous subsidy, don’t let fear of missing out cloud your judgement. Solar battery storage<\/a> is a big investment, and whether it’s a good investment or even a worthwhile purchase for you depends on your motivations and circumstances.<\/p>\n

If you’re not overly familiar with home batteries, SolarQuotes Founder Finn recently added three new comprehensive but easy-to-understand\u00a0 “101” guides<\/a> to step you through what you should know; which will help you make a better-informed decision. It’s really good information and well worth investing the time to read through the guides.<\/p>\n

First is his guide to understanding solar batteries<\/a> \u2013 running through the basics of how a home battery works, energy storage options and how they can save you money on your electricity bills.<\/p>\n

Next up is the all-important guide to buying solar battery storage<\/a> – determining if if it’s right for you, how to go about purchasing a good quality, competently installed home battery system at a reasonable price, and how to avoid the pitfalls. Part 3 is about owning a battery system<\/a> – maximising the benefits home energy storage can provide.<\/p>\n

In addition to these guides, there are other useful tools<\/a> on SQ for Australians considering home energy storage. These include the very popular solar battery comparison<\/a> table where you can compare specifications and estimated pricing of a bunch of models side-by-side.<\/p>\n

Another tool well worth checking out is the solar and battery calculator<\/a>, which enables you to see the estimated payback period on a battery separated from the payback on just installing solar panels – the results can be quite an eye-opener.<\/p>\n

You can also check out solar battery reviews<\/a> for dozens of brands submitted by Australians who have had systems installed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
