How a Tarneit Homeowner Secured $20,765 in Solar & Battery Rebates

Tarneit Installation Overview: 13.3kW Solar System Paired with 41.93kWh Battery Storage

With electricity prices rising across Victoria — and both federal solar and battery STCs set to keep dropping — many homeowners are acting now to lock in maximum savings. Rebates won’t stay the same heading into 2026, so this is the best time to secure your solar and battery incentives before they reduce further.

One Tarneit homeowner recently made the switch — and secured an impressive $20,765 in government solar and battery rebates with the help of Green Electric Solutions.

Our team installed a 13.3kW solar system paired with 41.93kWh of battery storage, using quality components from FoxESS, and completed the entire job through our SAA-certified, New Energy Tech-approved installers. The result? A reliable system, long-term energy independence, and thousands saved upfront — plus ongoing yearly bill reductions.

If you live anywhere in Victoria, this case study is a strong example of what might be possible for your own property.

Why Victorians Are Choosing Solar + Battery in 2025

The Solar Victoria program continues to offer generous support, especially for homes pairing solar with battery storage. Rebates, interest-free loans, and Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) together can dramatically reduce upfront costs — just like they did for this Tarneit household.

Victorian homeowners benefit from:

  • Massive upfront savings through rebates
  • Protection from rising grid prices
  • Peak-time bill reductions
  • More control over energy usage
  • Energy security during outages

With a larger battery system like this one, the household can run essential appliances even during blackouts.

Estimated Yearly Savings & System Performance

Based on system size, Tarneit weather conditions, and expected daily usage, this solar-battery setup is estimated to deliver:

  • 17,128 kWh of annual solar production
  • Approximately $2,309.12 in yearly electricity bill savings
  • Even lower bills long-term as grid prices rise
  • Higher energy independence thanks to 41.93kWh battery storage

In short: the system pays for itself significantly faster when paired with the available Victorian rebates.
