Understanding solar for your home

Online workshop

Join the thousands of Canberra households who are experiencing the benefits of solar energy. By installing a solar system, you can generate your own electricity and enjoy significant energy savings over time.

At this webinar learn about:

  • the different parts of a solar system
  • selecting the right solar system to meet your needs
  • maximising your solar system’s efficiency to reduce energy bills
  • home battery storage systems to enhance your energy efficiency.

We'll also tell you about support and rebates available through ACT Government programs, including the Home Energy Support Program (for eligible concession card holders).
