Clear, Up-to-Date Advice from Trione Energy
Below is an accurate overview of current solar battery incentives, what has closed, and how Trione can help you assess whether a battery is right for your home.
Victorian Solar Battery Loans – Current Status
The Victorian state interest-free solar battery loan program has closed and is no longer accepting new applications.
While this program previously helped many households spread the cost of a battery over time, it is no longer available for new installations. Any references elsewhere to Victorian interest-free battery loans are now outdated.
What Battery Incentives Are Available Now?
Although the state battery loan has ended, solar battery incentives are still available through federal programs.
Federal Battery Incentives
Under current national initiatives, such as the Cheaper Home Batteries Program, eligible households may receive:
- An upfront discount on eligible battery systems
- The discount is typically applied at the point of sale through accredited installers
- Incentive values depend on the battery’s usable capacity and current program rules
Rather than a loan, these incentives work by reducing the upfront purchase cost of a battery system.
Trione Energy can explain which incentives may apply to your home and confirm current eligibility before you proceed.
How Battery Incentives Typically Work Today
While incentive details vary, the general process is:
- Assess eligibility for current federal battery incentives
- Select an eligible battery system with guidance from Trione Energy
- Any available incentive is applied as an upfront discount
- The remaining balance can be paid upfront or through private finance options
Unlike the former Victorian loan, current incentives do not involve government-managed repayments.
