Cheap solar plan stalled

During the recent election, the state government promised to introduce rebates to allow home owners the ability to install a solar hot water system for $500.00.

The Government has again stalled on the promise it made and has now slashed the rebates that are currently available for heat pumps from $1600 to $1000.

Currently rebates allow home owners to collect $1600 for replacing their current electric system with a solar one.

With current rebates available to allow home owners to collect $1600 for replacing their existing electric system with a solar one, now is the perfect opportunity to get a solar hot water system installed.
