  • Eligibility: All residential and commercial systems under 100 kW with CEC-approved equipment
  • Claim Process: Automatically applied by Solar Galaxy as a point-of-sale discount

2025 Federal Battery Rebate Expansion

From July 2025, the federal government includes home batteries under the STC scheme:

  • Rebate Value: Around $372 per kWh of usable battery capacity (up to 50 kWh)
