Are You Eligible For Solar Victoria
Hot Water Rebates?
Who is eligible for Solar Victoria Hot Water Rebates?
As a Victorian householder, you could receive a hot water rebate if:
- You are the owner-occupier of an existing property where the system is to be installed
- The household taxable income of all owners combined is less than $210,000 per year
- The value of the property is under $3 million
- The property address has not already received a hot water or a solar battery rebate under the Solar Homes Program
- The hot water system to be replaced is at least 3 years old from the date of purchase
- You received a Solar Homes rebate and/or loan but have moved house. You can apply for another incentive at your new address as an owner-occupier if the property has not received these rebates before.
How the Solar Victoria Hot Water Rebates process works
- Do some research – read SV Hot Water Buyers Guide
- Talk with an authorised retailer like us
- Select a system using products on this list to meet your energy needs
- Ask for a written quote (your retailer will upload it into the Solar Victoria portal)
- Wait for the SV email confirming the quote has been uploaded
- Get pre-approval
- Prove you are eligible – upload your paperwork into the portal
- Wait for SV to confirm your eligibility and send your QR code
- Install the hot water system (within 120 days)
- Pay the difference to the retailer – the total cost minus the rebate
If you install your hot water system before your eligibility is approved, you will not receive a rebate (unless it’s an emergency installation).
