Upcoming Sun Tax: Why Now Is the Time to Invest in a Solar + Battery System
Australia’s energy landscape is on the brink of significant change. Starting July 2025, electricity companies will be permitted to charge households with rooftop solar panels for exporting excess power to the grid—a policy commonly referred to as the “Sun Tax.”

What Is the Sun Tax?
Traditionally, homeowners with solar panels could send surplus energy back to the grid, often receiving feed-in tariffs as compensation. However, with the rapid increase in solar adoption, the grid is experiencing congestion during peak solar production times. To address this, the Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) has approved measures allowing energy companies to implement export charges during periods of high solar output.

Why You Should Act Now?
- Avoid Upcoming Export Charges: By storing excess energy in a battery, you eliminate the need to export electricity during peak times, thereby completely avoiding the Sun Tax.
- Optimize Financial Returns: With a battery system, you can store energy when production is high and sell it to the grid when demand and electricity prices are higher, maximizing your profit.
Take Action Before July 2025
Investing in a solar + battery system before the Sun Tax takes effect allows you to fully benefit from your solar generation without incurring additional costs. Early adoption ensures you stay ahead of policy changes and continue to maximize your energy savings.
