With competitive pricing, robust safety, and long lifecycle performance, these products are well-positioned to capture a significant share of Australia’s home battery rebate program.
Driven by government rebate programs and growing consumer demand for energy independence, Australia has become one of the world’s most dynamic home battery markets.
Under the “Cheaper Home Batteries Program”, only CEC-listed energy storage systems qualify for subsidies. Once eligible, households, businesses, and community organisations can receive up to $372 per kWh of usable battery capacity. The subsidy increases with the battery’s depth of discharge (DOD): the higher the DOD, the greater the rebate.
GSL Energy’s Clean Energy Council (CEC)-listed storage batteries support up to 95% DOD, maximising both usable energy and rebate benefits for households and organisations.
The program is administered by the Clean Energy Regulator (CER) and is compatible with state-level schemes. Within one month of launch, over 20,000 household installation requests were submitted, averaging more than 1,000 applications per day, demonstrating strong market adoption.
As of early 2023, GSL Energy’s 14.34 kWh wall-mounted and floor-standing batteries have been officially listed by the CEC, making them eligible for government rebates in Australia.
