Australia’s Cheaper Home Batteries Program, launched on 1 July 2025, is supported by a $2.3 billion federal investment aimed at making energy storage far more affordable.
Through this initiative, eligible households can access savings of around $333 per kWh on approved home battery installations—equating to up to 30% off upfront.
