SOLAR REBATE CALCULATOR

Calculate the maximum ‘Solar Rebate’ you can get when buying a solar power system.

Let's Calculate!

How it works

There is a financial incentive available when you buy solar. The government calls it the ‘STC scheme’, but most people know it as the ‘Solar Rebate’, so for the rest of this page we’ll call it ‘the rebate’ even though technically it is not a rebate.

The rebate depends on:

  • How many solar panels you are buying
  • Where you live
  • The year of installation

The rebate is almost always already included in the prices you are quoted for or see advertised for solar.

Your Result Breakdown

The rebate is based on things called Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs).

You are entitled to: STCs

The maximum theoretical price you can get for STCs is $40 each. But this is rare.

Usually, you will get $35 – $38, or less if there is a run on solar panels.
