Understanding the Rebate for Solar Panels Sunshine Coast

If the good news is that solar power can save you on your energy bills, the great news is that there are rebates available to ease your start-up costs. There are federal and state rebates available for Logic Solar’s systems which can significantly reduce the cost of purchase and installation.

Solar System Sunshine Coast: Federal Government Rebate

People living in Queensland are eligible for the Australian Government solar panel rebate, otherwise known as an STC (Small-Scale Technology) rebate or “financial incentive” - by meeting two basic requirements. Firstly, solar panels and inverters must be approved and registered by the Clean Energy Council (CEC). Secondly, the installer must be CEC-accredited. 

All products we install are mid to high-end quality and all are CEC-approved. Likewise, all our installers at Logic Solar are fully licensed Electricians and CEC-accredited professionals, who have helped thousands of people throughout Queensland and NSW with their solar needs. They are all direct employees of Logic Solar - no sub-contractors - ensuring our high standards are met.

Your rebate will vary according to a couple of factors. These include your location and the size of your solar system in Sunshine Coast. We recommend contacting us to figure out your sizing needs. We can also help make you aware of the rebate you might be entitled to. Generally speaking, Queenslanders can expect to save up to a third under the Federal Government’s rebate.

Queensland Government Rebates

Queensland Government rebates are currently unavailable, but that may change. These include a battery rebate, grants for batteries, and interest-free loans for solar panels. While these have been halted, the news is not all bad at the State Government level.

Queenslanders may take advantage of incentives in the form of solar feed-in tariffs available through your Energy provider. This is where you receive a set figure for every kWh of power your solar system exports back to the energy grid.

As with the Federal Government rebate, how much you receive is determined by your location within Queensland. For example, those living on the Sunshine Coast will have their rate set by their electricity retailer. You can usually expect between 6 and 12 cents per kilowatt.
