Now about STCs
Small-scale technology certificates, or STCs, are credits issued by the NSW Federal Government under their Small-Scale Renewable Energy Scheme towards roof top solar installations in the state.
This scheme runs annually, per calendar year, to provide incentives and assistance to purchasers of solar panels and inverters for systems aimed at reducing energy costs. Business solar rebates for commercial properties are also available.
Fines apply if this is not the case and it also works to disqualify unrecognised installers, if necessary.
This helps maintain industry standards and ensure that only professional installation companies survive to service the solar system market.
At present, there is provision for solar panel government rebates to be claimed until 2030, though the number of credits issued is reducing every year as more people are taking up the renewable energy option.
