For trade partners
Do the jobs. We'll handle the certificates.
Install home batteries for your own customers and trade the certificates with us. We check every job for compliance, claim the battery STCs on your behalf, and pass the value back at trade pricing.
How trading works
Four steps from install to payment
You keep your customer and your margin. We take the compliance load and the certificate paperwork off your plate.
You do the job
Install batteries — or solar with storage — for your own customers. Your rate, your relationship, your invoice.
We check compliance
Send us the job paperwork. We check it against CEC, Solar Victoria and Clean Energy Regulator rules before anything is lodged.
We claim the certificates
We create, register and trade the battery STCs on your behalf — including the REC Registry lodgement and audit-ready evidence.
You get paid trade rates
You receive trade pricing across our range and the certificate value passed through at market rates, with fast settlement terms.
The battery boom
Australia is in the middle of a home battery rush
Since the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program opened, home battery installs have broken record after record — and every quarter has been bigger than the last. Trade partners who can install batteries are winning the work.
457,000+
home batteries approved in the federal rebate's first year
276,011
batteries installed in the first half of 2026 alone — up 52%
15.3 GWh
of approved battery capacity and climbing

Why homeowners buy
The benefits that sell themselves
Use these talking points on your next job — a battery is the easiest add-on to a solar install to quote.
Solar after dark
Batteries store the middle-of-the-day surplus and run the home through the evening — the bit that used to cost the most.
Backup when the grid drops
Keep the lights, fridge and internet on through outages with whole-home or essential-circuit backup.
Beat evening peak rates
Run on stored sunshine instead of paying peak tariffs — the fastest-growing reason customers give for buying.
Upfront federal discount
The Cheaper Home Batteries Program pays a point-of-sale discount via STCs — we help you claim it on every eligible job.
Battery STC calculator
Home batteries earn Small-scale Technology Certificates upfront under the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program. Estimate the certificate value on your next install — then trade them with us.
The STC factor steps down over time — earlier periods earn more certificates per kWh.

Small-scale Technology Certificates
≈ $3,185
at $35/STC indicative trade rate
13.5 kWh usable → 13.5 counted kWh × 6.8 (May – Dec 2026) = 91 STCs
Estimates only. Certificates are calculated on usable capacity in tiers — first 14 kWh at 100%, 14–28 kWh at 60%, 28–50 kWh at 15%, and the first 50 kWh only — with batteries 5–100 kWh nominal capacity eligible. The STC market price moves weekly; our trade desk confirms exact figures for every job before you commit.
