Federal Battery Rebate

Federal Battery Rebate Now Live for Central Coast Homes

The Federal Battery Rebate is officially live as of 1st July 2025, giving eligible homeowners on the Central Coast the chance to save around 30% on the cost of a solar battery system. Whether you already have solar panels or you’re planning a new install, the rebate makes it much more affordable to store your solar energy and use it when it matters most — at night, during blackouts, or on low-sunlight days.

This isn’t something you need to wait for — it’s active right now. At Coastal Solar Solutions, we’re helping local households apply for the rebate and install high-quality battery systems that make a real difference to your power bills.

What Is the Federal Battery Rebate?

The Federal Battery Rebate helps reduce the upfront cost of adding a home battery system — making solar storage more accessible for households across the Central Coast. It applies whether you’re expanding an existing solar setup or installing solar and battery together for the first time.

Eligible systems can receive up to $372 per usable kilowatt-hour (kWh) of battery capacity, which can add up to thousands in savings depending on your energy needs.

If you’re in Gosford, Bateau Bay, Umina Beach, Terrigal or nearby areas, Coastal Solar Solutions can guide you through the process — from selecting the right system to making sure your rebate is properly applied.

Who’s Eligible for the Federal Battery Rebate on the Central Coast?

If you’re located in Gosford, Woy Woy, Bateau Bay, Terrigal, Umina Beach, or anywhere across the Central Coast, you could be eligible for the Federal Battery Rebate — especially if you already have solar panels connected to the grid.

This rebate is designed to support households ready to take the next step with battery storage, helping reduce your reliance on the grid and lowering your power bills.

Eligibility Checklist for Central Coast Households

To qualify for the rebate, you’ll typically need to meet the following:

  • You own or reside at the property where the battery will be installed
  • Your existing or planned solar system is grid-connected and meets Australian standards
  • The battery is installed by a qualified, approved installer like Coastal Solar Solutions
  • The battery must be VPP-ready (Virtual Power Plant capable), although joining a VPP is optional

If you’re already running a solar system and want to add battery storage, chances are you tick most of the boxes. Not sure where you stand? We’ll help you confirm eligibility and find the right solution for your home.

Battery Rebate Scams: What to Watch Out For

With the Federal Battery Rebate now in effect, many Central Coast households are being approached by companies offering ā€œtoo-good-to-be-trueā€ battery deals. Some use aggressive sales tactics or make vague rebate claims without delivering quality systems — or local support.

If you’ve received a call, text, or knock at the door about a ā€œlimited-time battery rebate,ā€ it’s worth slowing down and checking the facts.

Look Out for These Red Flags:

  • High-pressure sales tactics demanding same-day decisions
  • Confusing or inconsistent pricing with no clear inclusions
  • No real local presence — just interstate or overseas sales teams
  • Unrealistically low prices that skip over system specs, quality, or accreditation

At Coastal Solar Solutions, we’re committed to honest advice, transparent pricing, and quality installations that qualify for the rebate — with no shortcuts.
