Solar in Joondalup: a mixed-housing hub

Joondalup is the planned regional centre of Perth's north, mixing CBD apartments and townhouses with detached suburban estates. Home ownership skews lower and younger here than in the surrounding suburbs, so the first thing to pin down is whether you own the roof you want panels on, because that decides if solar is yours to install.

Which rebates apply in Joondalup?

Three rebates may apply to a solar and battery install in Joondalup: federal STCs for panels, the WA Residential Battery Scheme for eligible Synergy customers, and the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program for batteries. The list below gives the rates and conditions.

• Federal STCs cut the upfront cost of panels — Perth sits in STC Zone 3.
• WA Residential Battery Scheme — a rebate of $130/kWh of battery capacity, up to $1,300 (10kWh cap), for eligible Synergy customers on a Supported Solutions List system.
• Federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program discounts battery storage on top, through Small-scale Technology Certificates.
