What is the Cheaper Home Batteries Program?

The new Cheaper Home Batteries Program is planned to commence on 1 July 2025, and is designed to reduce the expense of buying and setting up a new home battery as part of a $2.3 billion initiative.

If implemented, the Cheaper Home Batteries Program will:

  • Help 1 million households install battery storage
  • Provide rebates that could reduce battery costs by thousands
  • Work alongside existing state rebates and VPP programs for even greater savings
  • Be delivered through the existing Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme


According to the Australian Labor Party, “A re-elected Albanese Labor Government will make batteries cheaper, slashing energy bills for households, small businesses and community facilities by up to 90 per cent. Through our scheme, households will be able to purchase a typical battery with a 30 per cent discount on installed costs – saving around $4000 on a typical battery.”
