Quick Summary
For years, powering your home with solar and a battery has seemed out of reach for many Australians. High prices, confusing rebates, and incomplete quotes have made it nearly impossible to know what a complete system should cost.
That is changing, and a new option is now available. Eligible homeowners can now get a complete solar and battery system for $9,900. This includes quality solar panels, a dependable inverter, and 15kWh of battery storage. Need more power? Larger homes or those wanting extra storage can choose a 30kWh package for $13,600.
No vague specs, missing parts, or surprise costs hide behind the advertised price. You get a solar and battery system designed to work seamlessly together, with every detail and inclusion clearly shown before you decide. So, what's included in the $9,900 package?
The $9,900 package gives you everything you need to generate, store, and use your own solar energy:
- Quality rooftop solar panels
- A compatible and reliable inverter
- 15kWh of battery storage
- Professional installation
- System configuration and commissioning
- Applicable manufacturer warranties
- A clear, property-specific quote before installation
Instead of adding solar now and dealing with battery compatibility later, this system is designed as a complete household energy solution from day one. The exact panel capacity, brands, models, installation requirements, and warranty details will be confirmed in your written quote. Pricing depends on eligibility, property conditions, and individual system requirements.
Is Your Home Ready for More Battery Power?
If your evenings involve charging electric vehicles, running pool pumps, or keeping a big family cozy, extra battery capacity is a smart investment. The upgraded package includes 30kWh of battery storage for $13,600.
A bigger battery does not always guarantee bigger savings. The best choice depends on your household’s energy habits and how much solar power your system generates. Your most recent power bill is the perfect place to start comparing options.
Why Install Solar and a Battery Together?
Solar panels generate electricity during daylight hours, but many households consume the most power in the morning and evening. Without a battery, unused daytime solar is generally exported to the grid, often for a relatively small feed-in tariff. Later, when the sun goes down, the household must purchase electricity back from the grid at its normal usage rate.
A battery captures the solar energy your panels make during the day, saving it for when you need it most. This can cut down your evening reliance on the grid and put you in charge of your electricity bills. Choosing a well-matched solar and battery system from the start ensures every part works seamlessly together. This avoids the guesswork and hassle that often comes with upgrading older solar setups.
Federal Battery Support Makes Home Batteries More Affordable
The Australian Government’s Cheaper Home Batteries Program provides support for eligible batteries through the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme. When you install an eligible system, it generates Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) based on the battery’s storage capacity.
Most people give these certificates to their supplier, instantly lowering the system’s price.
To qualify, a battery must meet the program’s requirements: be new, appear on the approved product list, and be installed with a new or existing eligible solar system. The battery component is subject to relevant federal eligibility requirements.
NSW Homeowners May Not Need to Pay the Full Cost Upfront
The new Home Energy Saver program opens the door for more NSW households to enjoy affordable energy solutions. With zero-interest loans up to $15,000, the program helps you invest in energy-saving upgrades like rooftop solar and home batteries. You have up to ten years to repay.
To be eligible for a Home Energy Saver loan, you must generally:
- Own the NSW property as an owner-occupier or landlord
- Be an Australian citizen or permanent resident
- Have a combined taxable household income of no more than $210,000
- Select eligible equipment and an approved supplier
- Meet the participating finance provider’s lending and repayment requirements
The loan does not reduce the $9,900 price but lets eligible customers spread payments with no interest and avoid paying the full amount upfront. If the full $9,900 were financed evenly over ten years, payments would be about $82.50 per month. Financing the $13,600 package over the same period would be about $113.33 per month. These are simple calculations; actual repayments and approval depend on the finance provider. NSW Home Energy Saver
Could You Also Receive the NSW $4,000 Discount?
The Home Energy Saver program unlocks discounts of up to $4,000 for eligible lower-income households and concession card holders, making solar more accessible than ever. You can apply for a loan now, while applications for the separate discount will open soon. If you want both options, the NSW Government suggests applying for the discount first.
To qualify for the discount, your household will likely need a combined annual income of up to $80,000 or an eligible concession card. Some customer contribution and other requirements will also apply. Keep in mind, this discount is separate from the zero-interest loan and is not automatically included in the $9,900 price unless your individual quote clearly shows it.
A low upfront price means little if hidden costs appear later and inflate your final bill.
Before you proceed, your quote should clearly identify:
- The solar panel brand, model and system capacity
- The inverter brand and model
- The battery’s nominal and usable capacity
- Installation and commissioning costs
- Warranty coverage
- Any switchboard or site-specific work required
- The government incentives included in the advertised price
- Anything specifically excluded from the quote
Some homes need extra work due to switchboard condition, roof access, meter setup, cabling distance or other unique factors. If this applies to you, it should be explained upfront, not as a surprise on installation day.
Is 15kWh of Storage Enough?
For many households, 15kWh offers plenty of storage for soaking up daytime solar and powering your evenings. Still, the perfect battery size depends on your unique needs: electricity consumption
- The proposed solar system size
- Whether you use electric heating or cooling
- Whether you have a pool or electric vehicle
- How much backup capacity you want
- Your available budget and expected return
That is why we ask for your latest electricity bill. It helps us understand your usage and show you whether the 15kWh system fits or if the 30kWh package is a better match for your home.

Is 15kWh of battery storage enough?
For many households, 15kWh provides substantial capacity to store daytime solar energy for use in the evening. The right size depends on your electricity consumption, solar generation, appliances, and when you use the most power.
Can I use the NSW Home Energy Saver loan?
Eligible NSW homeowners and landlords may access a zero-interest loan of up to $15,000 for approved upgrades, including rooftop solar and residential batteries. Household income, residency, property ownership, supplier and finance-provider requirements apply.
How much would the $9,900 system cost each month?
