The WA Residential Battery Scheme is a game-changer for Perth households, offering a unique opportunity to harness the power of the sun while reducing energy costs and contributing to a cleaner future. At Southside Solar and Electrical, we are proud to be a part of this transformative initiative, guiding our clients through every step of the process to make renewable energy more accessible and affordable. Why Choose Southside Solar and Electrical?
As a locally owned and operated business, we offer:
• Comprehensive service: From design to installation, our team manages the entire process, ensuring a seamless experience. • 10-year workmanship warranty: We stand behind every installation, providing peace of mind with our comprehensive warranty and dedicated aftercare services. • Customer satisfaction: Our clients rave about our professionalism and care, with one customer noting: ‘The team at Southside Solar and Electrical completed the whole solar installation process for us from beginning to end. Calvin and his team were professional, informative, and friendly.’
“We’re excited to help Perth households harness the power of the sun with the new battery rebates,’ said Calvin, owner of Southside Solar and Electrical. ‘Our goal is to make renewable energy affordable, efficient, and hassle-free, so families can save on energy bills and contribute to a cleaner future.”
The WA Residential Battery Scheme offers a range of benefits, including:
- Perth households (Synergy customers): Up to $1,300 in state rebates ($130 per kWh) and approximately $2,574 in federal rebates for a 10kWh battery, totaling up to $5,000 in savings.
- No-interest loans: Up to $10,000 over 10 years for eligible households with a combined annual income under $210,000, covering batteries, inverters, and solar panels.
- Virtual Power Plant (VPP) participation: Required for all participants, enabling energy export to the grid for additional income through higher feed-in tariffs and supporting WA’s energy network with 1GWh of decentralised capacity.
At Southside Solar and Electrical, we handle all approvals and ensure your system meets the scheme’s requirements, including the use of approved battery systems (to be published by Energy Policy WA). We also provide expert advice on ensuring your existing solar setup is compatible with battery storage, such as incorporating a hybrid inverter. Benefits of Choosing Southside Solar
• Prompt support: We work with suppliers to resolve issues quickly, as one client noted: ‘Our inverter stopped working, and Calvin promptly assessed it, helping us with insurance reports to get a new one installed fast.’
• Comprehensive aftercare: We offer dedicated services to ensure your system operates efficiently and effectively. Prepare Now for a Sustainable Future
To maximise the benefits of the WA Residential Battery Scheme, we recommend:
• Contacting us for a free consultation to assess your solar system’s compatibility. • Pre-ordering your battery system to ensure timely installation after 1 July 2025 (installations before this date are ineligible for rebates or loans). • Staying updated on approved suppliers and equipment lists via Energy Policy WA. By combining the WA Residential Battery Scheme with existing incentives like the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) and Distributed Energy Buyback Scheme (DEBS), households can save over $900 annually on electricity bills while contributing to an estimated $190 million in infrastructure savings by 2030, according to the Clean Energy Council.
