Supercharged Solar for Renters: Landlord Rebate

Update, October 2026

This article was published in May 2025, before the program launched. The program opened on 12 December 2025 and is open now, first in, first served, with closing dates to be announced on the Queensland Government's program page. The rebate is $2,500 for a system of at least 3 kW, $3,000 from 4 kW and $3,500 for 5 kW or more, and you must get conditional approval before the solar goes in. See our solar for rentals page for who qualifies.

In Queensland, the "Supercharged Solar for Renters Program" offers landlords rebates of up to $3,500 to install solar panels on rental properties, aiming to reduce tenants' electricity bills. This program, announced in April 2025, aims to save renters an average of $700 per year on power bills.

When this was first written (May 2025), the eligibility rules had not yet been released. They are now on the Queensland Government's program page, and our solar for rentals page sums them up.

The scheme was funded for around 6,500 homes, so we expected it to fill quickly. To find out whether your rental property could qualify, see our solar for rentals page or contact us. You can also read about the state budget funding for the program.
