Financial incentives to help you go green.
Solar energy is a renewable and clean source of power that harnesses energy from the sun to produce electricity. Generating power this way does not produce harmful greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere, which has a positive effect on the environment.
The Tasmanian state government has set ambitious renewable energy targets to be net zero by 2030 and the installation of solar panels plays a crucial role in achieving these goals. By incentivising solar panel installation, Tasmania is taking a proactive approach towards transitioning to a greener and more sustainable energy future. Below are some of the available financial incentives to help people go renewable.
Available Incentives
You don’t always have to pay upfront to afford solar.
There are many ways to work around your financial situation, so book a consultation with us today to find out what you’re eligible to receive.
Book an appointmentOn a national scale, the Australian Federal Government implemented what’s called the “Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme” to help households and businesses reduce the upfront cost of installing solar.
How it works is that the scheme will award a number of Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) to eligible households and businesses that install solar panels at their premises.
Important information:
- STCs are available to everyone in Australia, be it businesses or households.
- You do not need to apply for them. Your solar retailer would redeem them for you, then apply it as a point of sale discount when you purchase your solar system.
- Without STCs, the cost of solar would be at least 30% higher.
- There is no limit as to the number of properties you can get STCs for i.e. you can get them for your main residence, your investment property, your small business ... there are no limits.
- The earlier you switch to solar, the higher the value of STCs you'll get hence the greater discount applicable for your solar system.
