Connecting solar and batteries in Perth

Perth is on Western Power's network, the South West Interconnected System, which runs from Kalbarri to Albany and east to Kalgoorlie.

  1. Step 1: An application to Western Power

    A connection application is needed for a new system, for changing or moving inverters, and for adding a battery. Homeowners are responsible for it, and most authorise their installer to apply.

  2. Step 2: Up to 30 kVA from 1 May 2026

    New rules from 1 May 2026 allow up to 30 kVA of inverter capacity on a standard household connection, single or three phase, up from 5 kVA.

  3. Step 3: Export product or 1.5 kW

    To sell solar back through an export product such as the Distributed Energy Buyback Scheme, your system must be able to be remotely disconnected and reconnected, which needs an internet connection. Otherwise a standard 1.5 kW export limit applies. Systems installed before 1 May 2026 aren't affected.

  4. Step 4: Strata properties

    If your property shares a connection, as many strata developments do, Western Power asks you to talk to your strata manager before applying.

Incentives for homes in Perth

These are the incentives open to homes in the area. Your installer normally applies the federal discounts to the quoted price.

  • Solar: small-scale technology certificates (STCs) reduce the price of eligible systems. Perth postcodes are in the Clean Energy Regulator's zone 3, which sets how many certificates a system earns.
  • Batteries: the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program discounts eligible batteries through the same certificate scheme.
  • WA Residential Battery Scheme: Synergy customers can get $130 per kWh of usable battery capacity, up to $1,300, for a battery of at least 5 kWh. Interest-free loans of $2,001 to $10,000 are available to households with a gross income under $210,000. You must join a virtual power plant, and the battery must be installed within six months of conditional approval.
  • There's no WA rebate for solar panels on their own.

Buyback rates

Synergy pays solar exports through the Distributed Energy Buyback Scheme: 10 cents per kWh between 3 pm and 9 pm, and 2 cents per kWh between 9 pm and 3 pm. Because evening exports earn five times as much, a battery that stores midday solar for the evening can be worth more.

To join DEBS, a new system must be able to be remotely managed (see the connection rules above).

Worth asking about in Perth

  • Your inverter needs a reliable internet connection if you want to sell solar back through an export product such as DEBS. Check your Wi-Fi reaches where the inverter will go, or ask the installer about a wired connection.
  • In a unit or townhouse? Solar and batteries on common property need your owners corporation's or strata company's agreement. Ask installers what they need from you to support the request.
  • Close to the coast? Ask whether the panels, inverter and mounting are suitable for salt air, and check the manufacturer's warranty conditions for coastal sites.
  • Older homes may need switchboard work before solar or a battery can be connected. Ask each installer whether their quote includes it.
  • Thinking about a battery? The WA Residential Battery Scheme needs approval and membership of a virtual power plant, so ask installers to check eligibility before you sign.
  • All electrical work must be done by a licensed electrician. Ask for the installer's licence and accreditation details with the quote.

Frequently asked questions

Who approves solar connections in Perth?

Western Power. A connection application is needed for a new system or a new battery, and most homeowners authorise their installer to submit it.

How much solar can I export in Perth?

From 1 May 2026, with a system that can be remotely managed you can join an export product such as DEBS. Without that, a standard 1.5 kW export limit applies.

Is there a solar or battery rebate in Perth?

For batteries, yes: the WA Residential Battery Scheme (up to $1,300 for Synergy customers, plus interest-free loans) alongside the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program. Solar panels get the federal certificates; there's no WA solar panel rebate.

Who is my retailer and network in Perth?

Western Power runs the network across the South West Interconnected System, which takes in Perth. Synergy is the retailer for most households in that system. Your connection application goes to Western Power, and your buyback rate comes from your retailer.
