Australia’s Cheaper Home Batteries Rebate Launches Today!

It’s July 1 — the official start of the Cheaper Home Batteries Program — and the day many households have been waiting for. Here’s a practical round-up of what you need to know to access the rebate and make the most of it.

The rebate, first announced by the Albanese Government in April, has gone through months of consultation and finalisation. Now that the details are locked in and the program is live, we’ve pulled together some of the key info, insights, and tools that will help you navigate the rollout confidently.


Your Battery Rebate Quick Guide

Start with En3rgy Solutions’ battery rebate guide, which explains how the program works, who’s eligible, how much you could save, and the steps to apply. We’ll continue updating this resource as new details emerge or requirements shift — it’s your go-to reference for everything rebate-related.


What Products Are Eligible?

There’s a wide range of batteries and inverters that qualify under the scheme. The Clean Energy Council has published up-to-date lists of approved batteries and approved inverters. But navigating is difficult without expert advice.

While choice is a good thing, it can be overwhelming. That’s where our independent battery comparisons come in. We’ve analysed and compared top-performing brands to help you decide what might work best for your home, goals, and usage patterns.

Federal Government’s Take

At yesterday’s launch in Canberra, Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Chris Bowen, said:

“There’s been a huge amount of interest from Australians. Installers across the country have been deluged with inquiries. Tomorrow is a good day for delivery and a good day for people wanting to reduce their emissions and their bills by installing a home battery.”
