With the new Solar for apartment residents NSW grant, owners corporations can now take a significant step toward cleaner energy and lower power bills by installing shared solar systems on apartment buildings.
At Arise Solar, we’re proud to support apartment owners, strata managers, and residents in embracing sustainable energy solutions. Whether you’re part of an owners corporation or a strata scheme, now is the time to act.
What Is the Solar for Apartments Grant?
Why Solar for Apartments?
The NSW Government, with support from the Australian Government, has launched a funding program offering up to 50% off the total cost of shared solar system installations for apartment buildings. With $25 million in total funding and up to $150,000 available per project, this grant makes going solar more affordable than ever for multi-unit dwellings.
According to data shown on NSW Climate and Energy Action, currently, less than 2% of apartment buildings in NSW have solar panels installed. Yet, as energy prices climb and more people choose apartment living, the demand for innovative solar solutions is growing. Arise Solar is at the forefront of making solar more accessible—even for high-rise dwellers.
Benefits for Owners Corporations
