Save 50% with a NSW Solar Grant
Unlocking solar for stratas
The Australian government has launched a new solar rebate program designed specifically for apartment buildings with 3 to 55 units. Through this program, eligible buildings can receive up to $150,000 per site, offering 50% off the cost of solar installations on shared roof spaces. This initiative provides an excellent opportunity to reduce energy expenses for communal areas like lighting, security systems, pool pumps, and more.

How does it work?
Once installed, solar energy will power communal areas such as hallways, garages, and other shared facilities, significantly reducing the building’s overall electricity costs.
Through Bright Future Energy’s partnership with Allume SolShare, a specialised split-metering technology will ensure that any excess solar energy not used by communal areas is distributed equally among the tenants.
This means not only are the strata’s energy bills lowered, but individual residents also benefit from lower electricity costs.


Enabling Solar Fairsharing in Strata
SolShare enables fairsharing of solar energy from a single rooftop solar PV system amongst multiple dwellings within the same building. This breaks down the technical and ownership barriers that have historically prevented apartment residents from accessing cheaper and cleaner energy from the sun.
